Overview
You can use the Form Designer to create the various forms for your processes. With the help of forms, users can enter data, send a request or make a decision.
Sections
linqi builds the forms on the basis of 1 - 4 column sections. This column layout means that forms can also be used on mobile devices, as the different columns are displayed one below the other at lower resolutions.
To create a form, you must therefore insert one or more sections at the beginning. You can insert any number of control elements into a section.
If you click on the name of a section, you can change the name of the section. The name is displayed to the user and can be used to structure a form into different sections.
On the right-hand side of the sections, you can also use the following buttons to perform the following actions:
- : This button allows you to change the order of the sections using drag'n'drop.
- : This button allows you to adjust the properties of the section.
- : You can use this button to delete the section again.
You can adjust the following properties using the Edit button:
- Internal name: The internal name can be used to reference a section in rules. Unlike the normal name, the internal name is not displayed to the users.
Controls
You can use the plus sign () to open the list of available controls and insert a new control into a section using drag'n'drop.
Each control element has the following actions available on the right-hand side:
- : You can use this button to change the order of the controls using drag'n'drop or to move a control to another section.
- : This button allows you to adjust the properties of the control element. Details can be found in the corresponding pages depending on the control type.
- : This button copies the corresponding control element and inserts the copy below it.
