"FullForm" options

The Responsive Form Builder allows authorized users to create forms in Runtime Mode. Among the form types you can create are "FullForms", which are designed to be full-sized regular forms. These forms might or might not be fully "responsive" forms. At a minimum, however, all these form types have basic add, modify, save, and delete functions.

All "FullForm" options have these characteristics:

  • Although, "FullForms" can run as regular forms in runtime, all "FullForms" are designed to be run in "FormOnly" mode.
  • The number of property values that can be displayed varies according to the template.
  • All "FullForms" include standard Minimize, Maximize, and Close buttons.
  • On some of the "FullForms", at least some information is displayed using tiles (tile forms).

    This means that, when the form is created, the wizard actually creates two forms: the "FullForm" and an accompanying tile form. Both are launched when the widget is created.

    Note: When created, the tile form typically appears blank. Unless you know what you are doing with tile forms, we recommend that you leave the tile form alone and simply close it.

This table lists and describes the various "FullForm" options available with the Responsive Form Builder:

"FullForm" template Notes/Comments
FormWithGrid This template displays data for up to 20 properties of records in an IDO collection.

The left side panel of the form displays the first two properties of each record on tiles, displaying all records as a list.

The data for each record is displayed on one or two notebook tabs. The first ten properties display on the Primary tab, The rest of the properties display on the Secondary tab.

The right side panel also has two buttons, Add and Save, that allow you to add records to the IDO collection.

The upper right corner of the generated form has a placeholder for an image, like a logo perhaps. You can use the Web Designer (or Design Mode) to either delete this placeholder component or assign an imported image or library image to this space.
