I would find it helpful to have a field level checkbox option: Display field on new line

The current behavior would be as if this option were checked. Each field is its own line (row) in the detail view.

If unchecked, then the field would display on the same line/row as the previous field.

An example.
Instead of having this format out vertically, as it does now, the new option would allow this.
This would put the three name fields on a single line/row, and then birthday on the next.

I think this would allow the creation of some much more compact (and input friendly) detail views.

Two things to add to this.

1. In thinking about the above suggestion for splicing multiple fields onto one row, it occurred to me that the logic might be easier (depending on how the generator code is structured) to attach a "New line after field?" option. That would allow the next field to appear on the same row.

2. I just built "check list" system. 77 items, all with 3-5 conditions. The requirement I was given is to show them all as radio buttons - no drop downs or checkboxes. It would be extremely help if, in the setup of option lists, to have not just one radio button option, but two. One for vertical radio buttons (the current implementation) and one for horizontal radio buttons. Having the radio buttons neatly in a row (rather than stacked vertically) would shorten my form tremendously and make it much easier to navigate and print.

I guess the correct solution for #2 above would be to allow the specification (per field) of RadiosPerLine.
