Formatting radio button-horizontal layout

All,
I am using PHPR 8.0, build 25010 x64. I am trying to use a radio button, horizontal layout, and the generated layout of the edit control is "wrapping" on my edit page. This is how I've tried to set the column:
From Visual Editor, go to properties for column, set to Text Field, change Size Px from default 200 to 750. Click OK. Now it shows as a wide field on the Visual Editor. Then go to properties again, set to Lookup Wizard, using Database table (and also a Where filter) and choose radio button, horizontal format. Click OK. Generate application. Refresh page (or start over with new browser session). When my Edit page displays, the 5 radio button values are wrapped on 2 lines, not stretching across the page. Looks like it's still at that 200 Px limit that is causing the wrap-around.
Any ideas? On my old PHPR 5.3, the application was just fine. I've started over in generating it on 8.0.
This format is important as it needs to show a "continuum of values" across the page... I would almost try the slider plug-in control, but the most recent review of not getting support on it worries me. And I'd really love to just use the standard capabilities of PHP Runner for now (besides the mobile template, of course!)

Most likely you need to use 'Custom CSS' for this purpose to expand the space that set of radio-buttons takes. Expanding the table cell itself is not enough.
If you have a current support agreement post your project to Demo Account and contact support directly with the URL of the page in question.
