Gmap views2 style setting field for macro too short [#499136]

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this issue and if it should be reported as a bug or a feature request.

I am using cck location fields, views with a relationship and gmap. This is all working very nicely, thanks.

When setting the Views>style>gmap settings gear the field for the GMap macro is a fixed size and I need to include a longer macro.

Any suggestions or help on how would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Izzy

Hi again izmeez,

The offending line of code seems to be line 150 to 155 in gmap_plugin_style_gmap.inc

$form['macro'] = array(
      '#type' => 'textfield',
      '#title' => t('Macro'),
      '#size' => 1000,
      '#default_value' => $this->options['macro'],
    );

You can alter the #size but keep it reasonable until an admin says it's OK, because the field may have a storage limit in the DB.

I quickly changed the default value to "Am I here" to see if it was the correct field & the gmap settings macro altered.

Drew,

If this is saying it's set at 1,000 character something else is wrong. I was not trying to enter a macro THAT BIG !

But, thanks for trying to sort this out.
