    Default Increasing amount of character in calendar subject

    I guess the subject of my post says it all...
    Is there a way to increase the amount of characters I can type in the subject of my calendar events?

    Also, is there a way to read the description of a calendar event in shared when I'm not part of the event?


    Thanks!

    Yes, it is possible to change it. You can do it by changing the width of the name column within the database structure, then changing the vardefs.php file that corresponds with the activity type(s) you modified.

    For example, if you modify the name column for Calls, go into <sugar root>/modules/Calls and modify the vardefs.php in that folder. The vardefs.php contains the definition of the columns for that module, so you would need to update it to reflect the change you made through the backend.
