Form Properties

Introduction

Feature(s)

In Form Properties, you can make settings for the form as a whole. This is different from setting one single field in Field Properties.

Application Scenario(s)

  • When filling out the form, members may be uncertain about what to input for some fields. In this case, you can enable the Save Draft button in Form Properties so that they can continue filling out the form when they have figured it out.
  • When running a poll, you can set Field Display Rules in Form Properties to display the other fields automatically after certain options are finished.
