We have some custom singleoption fields that are being displayed in two totally different ways. One is being shown horizontally, and the other is a drop-down menu. This makes no sense to me. Please change this to always display as a dropdown menu, or else make it a toggle option to display it horizontally.

    Thanks, Helio. Is there a reason why these two fields display differently, and is there a way to change that?

    The main reason is that when there are only a few options to select from, displaying them all upfront makes it easier and saves a few clicks. Currently, it’s not possible to change this behavior, but as promised, I submitted this as feedback yesterday :)

    Thanks for submitting the feedback. This is confusing because both fields only have 3 options, and display differently 😐️

    When can this be fixed? This is really frustrating for our team. We do not want the horizontal display because the options get cut off on some screens.

    @jhollender I understand how this might be frustrating, but the field is behaving as expected, so this would actually be considered an improvement rather than an issue that needs fixing. Please know that I've already submitted feedback about it, and I appreciate your patience as we work towards continuous improvement.

    I'm sorry, but that is not an improvement. Inconsistency in UI is never a good thing for your users.
