put some input boxes on the same line

Post by baudwalker » 2018-04-03 06:25

I have seen the tutorial to make the detail screen into 2 columns. But may I suggest that this facility be extended to allow this to be used within the AppGini App as required.

Each field would have the facility to select for that feild to be on the same line as the previous field, also select the percentage of coverage to allow for 2, 3 or more field per row. see attached.

It would be nice to have the ability to put the labels inside the text box.

This would improve the final layout of the screens

Thanks for your suggestion. Placing labels inside text boxes is not a good practice from UI point of view. Here is a detailed discussion on this topic: https://www.nngroup.com/articles/form-d ... ceholders/

However, we'll do consider adding an option for placing several fields on the same line as it's indeed helpful in many scenarios.

The main thing I was referring to was the layout of the fields and I see that it is on the drawing board

Thank you
