hi! i have a text field, that sometimes, it would contain upto 500 characters.. i just would like to ask if it's possible to increase the height instead of the width of a specific column on the list or if you can limit the max length of the field that the user can view.. im using the flexigrid by the way

Well, first of all there is a setting under application/config/grocery_crud.php with this line,

 
//The character limiter at the list page, zero(0) value if you don't want character limiter at your list page
$config['grocery_crud_character_limiter'] = 30;
 
I believe the comment is self explanatory. Obviously this is a global setting.
The only other option is to use some clever js/jQ way of getting the td that holds the data or the div itself.

If you can do this then you might be able to alter the specific td (or div).
