I have a custom attribute in my repository (version 3.1.17) called "Committee". Since some committee names are longer than the default 100 width, I am trying to modify my header.xml file to make the drop down box to a 200 width.

In my header.html I have specified the field and all is working ok there...

Committee: [ATTRIBUTE:Committee]

In my header.xml file I specified the following;

 <Object>
   <Token>[ATTRIBUTE:Committee]</Token>
  <Settings>
   <Setting>
    <Name>Width</Name>
    <Value>200</Value>
   </Setting>
  </Settings>
 </Object>

No matter what value I put in there the width of the drop down control won't adjust from the default. Am I doing anything wrong?

Thanks for any help!!

looking at the code, it appears that you cannot set values for 'individual' attributes. All attributes share the same settings

so, in your header.xml file, the token should just be ATTRIBUTES and not ATTRIBUTE:Committee.  If you set the width to 200, then all attribute dropdowns will be 200 pixels wide.
