Is it possible to add a control next to a UDF so that the user can click and see an expanded entry field similar to what appears next to extended description?

Yes. Some ideas based on the UDF(s) in your screenshot: 1- Add a Customizer dialog button next to UDF. Click the button and dialog appears with another UDF showing what's already been keyed in. User keys in more info then click OK to close dialog. The new ""extended info"" is either copied back to original UDF or it can stay in the extended UDF . If latter, a UDT is involved to maintain the extended UDF data (a la extended descriptions). Scripts run in between to handle copying of data. 2- Same as above but as a mod. It would have a cleaner, lighter footprint. 3- Add a Customizer dialog button only. Place all your ""extended"" type UDFs in the dialog instead of Additional panel. User keys in data and clicks OK to save. No scripts, no mods but user always has to click the button to see the data in the UDFs. 4- Add new tab / panel. Place all your UDFs. Enough room to see everything, key in everything.

I'll add that if you use point 3 to place all your UDFs on a dialogue panel, you can use the method described in this post to display the first X number of characters anywhere else, such as on the Additional tab. https://90minds-com.socialcast.com/messages/39059014?ref=stream

Thanks! I passed along these suggestions. Primarily I wanted to be sure I wasn't overlooking something simple which it doesn't seem that I was.
