Bootstrap not compact enough in detail view
Posted: 2013-10-29 16:48
I migrated to 5.20 but the record detail view -for our specific usage- is a disappointment.
Our application is industrial and the old detail view with field names and contents on same line was very effective.
We had it working on large screens as well as handheld devices. In fact I was hoping to find a way to put more than one short fields per line. Now each field takes up 2 lines. The new look is wasting up a lot of pixels from this perspective, as we really want to fit in a lot of info for expert users using the same pages hundreds of times daily, rather than clarity with lots of space for occasional or new users of the application.
Is there a way to recreate something like the pre-Bootstrap detail view without having to design a template manually?
Is purchasing a 3rd party template (not a theme, themes of colors is largely irrelevant for us) possible for this?
Perhaps I am missing something?
Thanks.
