How to set width of input multiselect?

I'm looking to change the width of the multiselect input box.  It's currently dynamically updated, and the lengths of the input varies.  

 

Would it be possible to change the width dynamically (if not static)?  

 

TIA.

Hi,

You'll need to manipulate the style of the fieldset and input div tags. This example is just a starting point. It impacts the display of the dashboard when editing and may break accessibility:

<form version="1.1" theme="dark">
  <label>Multiselect Width</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="false">
    <html>
      <style>
        .fieldset {
          display: table;
        }
        #fixed_width_multiselect {
          display: table-cell !important;
          width: 500px !important;
        }
        #fixed_width_multiselect div[role="listbox"] {
          display: table-cell !important;
          width: 480px !important;
        }
        #dynamic_multiselect {
          display: table-cell !important;
          white-space: nowrap !important;
        }
        #dynamic_multiselect div[role="listbox"] {
          display: table-cell !important;
        }
      </style>
    </html>
    <input id="fixed_width_multiselect" type="multiselect" token="fixed_width_multiselect_tok">
      <label>Fixed-Width Multiselect</label>
      <!-- ... -->
    </input>
    <input id="dynamic_multiselect" type="multiselect" token="dynamic_multiselect_tok">
      <label>Dynamic Multiselect</label>
      <!-- ... -->
    </input>    
  </fieldset>
</form>

Note that your Splunk administrator may disable the <html> tag in dashboards, in which case you'll need their assistance adding a CSS file to the app and referencing it with the stylesheet attribute of the <form> tag.
