Keeping forms short and sweet with Advanced Grid

The survey stalwart is now a powerful tool that rules with flexibility

The latest webform upgrades have transformed the Grid component from being a simple survey stalwart into a powerful tool that can be used to:

  • format text-based forms 
  • create complex order forms in a single table format

Compact, well-formatted text-based forms

Grids can now be used to format textfields and textarea components so that labels and components line up neatly.

Complex order forms in a single table format

Grids can now contain any webform component. This makes it possible to create complex forms that are compact enough to be viewed on one page, even with multiple conditionals and validation.
