How can we change the width of input text/select box?
Hey @Daniyal56,
The text/select box size will always be the entire column width what it is put in. If you would like it to be smaller, then what I like to do, is to create columns with the st.beta_columns and put my widget in there.
This way you can make the width smaller.
Checkout this code for more:
import streamlit as st
st.title("Change Text Input Width")
st.write('A standard text input:')
st.text_input('Write some text here:')
st.write("text input in columns:")
buff, col, buff2 = st.beta_columns([1,3,1])
col.text_input('smaller text window:')
gives:
Hope this helps!
Happy Streamlit-ing!

Thanks for letting me know, But Melissa i was mistakenly mentioned about the width I was actually want to know about the height of the box, if you can please share at your earliest please
Hey @Daniyal56,
Well you can’t change the height of the text_input, but you could use text_area instead? It has a larger height and does basically the same thing!
Happy Streamlit-ing!
