[Explanation: CSS has priority over size parameter] Field Size Overrided by FLEXIcontent's CSS was created by Dave LeDev

The Field size isn't being honored.

In relation to the default Isis Administrator Template, setting the CSS to this resolves the problem:
\administrator\components\com_flexicontent\assets\css\flexicontentbackend.css @line 2664

Code:

#flexicontent form select.fcfield_selectval, 
#flexicontent form input.fcfield_textval {
    height: 26px;
    line-height: 26px;
    overflow: auto;
    vertical-align: top;
    min-width: unset;
    width: unset;
    max-width: unset;
}

There's likely a better way, but it yields desired results.

Hello

this has been discussed many times in Joomla repository too

Short answer
the "size" will be used by the browser only if CSS that effects it does not exist

So this is the expected behaviour
probably we should remove this parameter completely

please do not try to use this parameter for styling, instead use some custom CSS in your Joomla template

or add the custom CSS in file:
template/MYJoomlaTemplate/css/flexicontent.css

-- Flexicontent is Free but involves a big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?
-- Add your voice to the FLEXIcontent JED listing with a 5-star...
