Edit Screen Form - Changing field order

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 8
Hi,
 
When I try and change the order of my fields in my Editscreen, it jumbles them up moving them randomly around my form...  I do have a lot of fields in here approx 60.  I have found if I reorder just the one, save and then refresh the app that it is less problematic but it is also very frustrating slow to do that for every change.  Its not just isolated to this screen, the details screen does the same thing.   Anyone else have the same problem?  Is it a known program issue, any suggested fixes?
 
Thanks

    Re-ordering the controls in the form is little frustrating process, i can totally understand. 
     
    Based on my experience there are 2 ways. 
    • Drag and drop the control accordingly. 
    • Re-order the X & Y Position accordingly 
     
    Mine is 3*3 
     
    Title           -  X: 0  Y : 1
    Status        -  X:1   Y : 1
    Created     -  X:2  Y : 1
     
    Created By - X:0  Y : 2
     
    In this way also you can easily change accordingly.
     
    With respect to view form you can use the same form for edit as well as view.
