AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
To modify an entry form to get 4 fields each line with even spacing between each field, you can use a combination of SuiteScript methods and CSS. Here's a step-by-step guide: 1. Create a custom field group: Create a new field group underneath the fields you want to align, with the title turned off. Move the fields you want to align into this field group. 2. Use the
updateBreakType()
method
: This method allows you to control the layout of your fields. You can use the
STARTCOL
,
STARTROW
,
MIDROW
, and
ENDROW
options to control the positioning of your fields. 3. Use the
updateLayoutType()
method
: This method allows you to mimic the
Same Row as Previous
checkbox when editing forms in the UI. Use it in combination with the
updateBreakType()
method to get your fields on the same line. 4. Use CSS to control spacing: You can use CSS to control the spacing between your fields. Wrap your inline field's content in a span with a style attribute to control the width and position. Here's an example:
Copy code
html
<span style="
    width: 80vw;
    position: absolute;
    right: 10vw;
">
5. Use the
INLINEHTML
field type
: If your fields are still not displaying correctly, you can use the
INLINEHTML
field type to break the text out of the NetSuite form. This gives you more control over the layout of your fields. Remember, this is a proof of concept and might need some tweaking to fit your specific needs. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
