How do I set the number of rows in a multiple lines field?

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
How to change the number of rows (default is 5) of multiline field?

Solution:
You can do that using some CSS, we can’t modify html generated by CRED directly, but CSS will do similar thing. Add the following CSS to your theme’s style.css file or CRED >> CSS editor or Custom CSS section:

textarea[name="wpcf-learning-point-1a"] {
  height: 350px;
}

I am trying to set the number of rows in a multiple lines field. By default it is set to 5. When i inspect the front end form i see this:
<textarea id="cred_user_form_1959_1-textarea-1-1503561608" name="wpcf-learning-point-1a" rows="5" cols="1" class="wpt-form-textarea form-textarea textarea textarea" data-wpt-type="textarea" data-wpt-id="cred_user_form_1959_1_cred_user_form_1959_1-textarea-1-1503561608" data-wpt-name="wpcf-learning-point-1a">p1a</textarea>

How can i change the default number from 5 to 10 for example?
Kind regards,
Steve

Hi Pat,

Thank you for contacting Toolset support. You can do that using some CSS, we can’t modify html generated by CRED directly, but CSS will do similar thing. Please add the following CSS to your theme’s style.css file or CRED >> CSS editor or Custom CSS section:

textarea[name="wpcf-learning-point-1a"] {

You can modify the height as needed.
