Fill in the blanks box size

    When using the "fill in the blanks" feature -- how can I make the display of the blank longer? For example, if I'm asking for someone's business name and it's a long name, the text takes up more space and runs out of the box so that once it's submitted it doesn't show up.

    Please inject the following custom CSS code in your form to increase the textbox width of "The Organization" field:

    #\31 597206872587-shorttext {

        width: 300px !important;

    }

    I inserted this code in the advanced designer area of my form and it didn't
    work. Anything else I could try?

    Kindly try injecting the custom CSS codes to your form instead to meet your requirements.

    div#FITB_43 p span:nth-child(3) input {

        width: 300px !important;

    }

    Result:

    Here's a cloned version of your form where I injected the custom CSS codes I mentioned above.
