Container size fitting
- 22 days ago
Hi bobekryant,
Yes. If you are using the current Card visual, I would make Entity and Address separate cards rather than trying to squeeze both into the same card layout.
The current Card visual lets you add multiple values, with each value displayed as its own card inside the visual. Under Format visual > Multi-card layout, you can also enable Fixed size and give the cards explicit dimensions, so one longer value does not force the other cards to continually resize.
You can then use Apply settings to in the formatting pane to format Entity and Address individually.
If you need completely different widths, heights or positions for each field, I would go one step further and use a separate Card visual for each field. That gives you full control over the available space for a longer Entity value without affecting Address.
So I would avoid solving this mainly through smaller fonts/padding. Separate card containers, either within the new Card visual or as individual visuals, should give you much cleaner control.

If you're trying to reproduce something very close to an existing medical/financial form, an HTML Content-type custom visual can be effective.
Tell AI what spacing, widths, padding, border, backgrounds etc. you are looking and have it generate html code, use this code in a Measure for html visual.
