First of all, thanks for such an awesome module. Modules like this make using drupal a pleasure.

I wanted to mass edit nodes of a type very similar to Page (the use case is almost identical to the one given on the Module home page for editing Pages)

I found the text area for the Body field had only 2 rows. So I looked into the code and made a change around line 149 - namely:

  if (isset($elements[$field])) {
    if ($elements[$field]['#type'] == 'textarea') {
      $elements[$field]['#resizable'] = FALSE;
      $elements[$field]['#rows'] = 20;
    }

Is there a UI way to achive this? It would be cool to have more config for the module - e.g. the ability to specify the number of new node forms in the view.

Thanks again for such an effective module.

If you need to change the columns adjust:

modules/editview/theme/editview.theme.inc

and add the 'cols' tag after rows line: (around line 147)

function _editview_form_field(&$elements, $field) {
if (isset($elements[$field])) {
if ($elements[$field]['#type'] == 'textarea') {
$elements[$field]['#resizable'] = TRUE;
$elements[$field]['#rows'] = 20;
$elements[$field]['#cols'] = 100;
}

You may have to also edit your SYSTEM.CSS file. On my theme
I had to comment out the width clarification:

html.js .resizable-textarea textarea {
margin-bottom: 0;
/* width: 100%; */ <------------- commented out so that the cols works above
display: block;
}

DO NOT MODIFY CORE CODE. http://drupal.org/node/144376

Please research hook_form_alter() and just override the CSS for that field.

Also, closing old issue.
