Hello,
I'm wondering if there is a way to re-size a popup/alert window? They are all a standard size, but is there any scripting to modify that size?
Thanks in advance for any insight!

Hi drizagon,
While not an uber easy task, if the standard built-in dialogs are not to your liking, you can create a custom dialog of larger size using Acrobat JavaScript. Here is a tutorial on custom dialogs for PDFs-

A link in that article goes to a page with examples of different type custom dialogs of varying size.
Hope this helps,

Can you use JS dialogs in LiveCycle?

Hi drizagon,
I just thought of a small workaround depending on how much bigger you want the alert box. There is a limit to the amount of text you can put in the standard built-in alert dialog but you could use carriage returns to increase the size of the dialog a bit. Can't recall right now what the limit is on the number of text lines- you'll have to test it out.

Yes, that's a good way to make the alert bigger. There doesn't seem to be a limit on the number of line breaks one can use (except for the size of the screen, of course).
