Model-driven app quick view control properties
A quick view control on a model-driven app form displays data from a row that is selected in a lookup on the form. The data displayed in the control is defined using a quick view form. The data displayed is not editable, but when the primary column is included in the quick view form, it becomes a link to open the related row. More information: Create and edit quick view forms

Note
When adding a multi-line text column to a quick view form, the form will have a height of one regardless of how the column control height is set. This ensures proper rendering of the form while maintaining density. Notice that multi-line text columns on other form types, such as main forms, work differently as the form automatically expands based on the amount of text.
