How to customize the template/form for Product_Edit_General
I have an "design issue" with the SKUShortDescription_editor that is rendered by Product_Edit_General.aspx. I wonder if you have any example of how this Product Editor can be customized?

Specifically I want it to be bigger (more rows) as I sometimes want to enter quite a number of very short rows there.

11x30
12x30
340/22
375/22
400/20
425/20

Hi,

1. you can use small triangle in the editable window corner (lower-right corner) to change size of window.
2. If you would like to have higher window by default, you can change file \CMSModules\Ecommerce\Controls\UI\ProductEdit.ascx. There is a control
<cms:CMSHtmlEditor ID="htmlTemplateBody" runat="server" Width="450px" Height="200px" />
so you may change Height pararameter.

Best regards,
Ivana Tomanickova

Thank you for your input Ivana. Perhaps we are talking about different things because I can neither find the little triangle or the presence of any control with the ID of htmlTemplateB... in the file ProductEdit.ascx.

Here are a couple of illustrations

Hi,

I described how this can be changed in 6.0 version:)

The solution for 7.0 is even easier. Go te the Site Manager - Development - System tables - Ecommerce - SKU - Alternative forms - Update general. Here you can find the field and in its definition change size of the area.

Best regards,
