ArcPad Customized Data Forms

BrettSexton · ‎07-29-2015

Hello,
I have created a data form for ArcPad and was wondering how to alter the text size of the fields and dropdown domains. My fields and dropdowns are lengthy messages for field technicians and I need the text size to get much smaller or have the capability to wrap text. I have seen other data forms with wider dropdowns as well which could help a lot. Any ideas?

I think you can use ArcPad Studio for this:
