Will flush cache and see if older forms will take columns. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/problems-with-column_2#post-15559 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 14:03:50 +0000 yuniar 15559@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>It should be upgraded. Try to delete your browser cache and restart it. Most likely your browser still loading the CSS files from the old cache. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/problems-with-column_2#post-15556 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 06:39:47 +0000 AguilaFan 15556@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Appreciate answer Wiiliam.<br /> Did all of what you wrote. Saved, and clicked on VIEW. Single column for 4 fields. Top Aligned and the whole ball of wax.<br /> Just thought of something. The multi column feature...does it only work in new 3.3 version?<br /> Upgraded just in case.<br /> Nope. Still one column format. Used "old" form to check it out.</p> <p>Finally got it going by creating new form with version 3.3 installed. Thought the form created with 3.1 would "adapt" to version 3.3 modifying the code once opened. Guess not. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/problems-with-column_2#post-15555 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 05:08:46 +0000 williamansley 15555@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>AguilaFan, you don't give enough details in your message for me to be sure exactly what the problem you are seeing is, but you need to paste the text "column_2" into the "Custom CSS Class" field of the field properties for <strong>both</strong> of the fields in your form that you want to display side by side. Also, you will not see the fields display in two columns in the Form Manager Edit Mode; you have to save your form and then View it to see the multi-column layout. If you are trying to set up more than two fields in two columns (for example, six fields, as shown in the example in the second message in this thread), you may have to add "new_row" after "column_2" in the "Custom CSS Class" field of the field properties for the first field in the second and third rows of items, that is "field 3" and field 5" in the example above. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/problems-with-column_2#post-15550 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 20:37:56 +0000 AguilaFan 15550@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Placed colunm_2 in css field and nothing happens. Please advise what steps to trouble shoot. Top Aligned (default) is enabled.<br /> Thank you. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/problems-with-column_2#post-15532 Sun, 05 Aug 2012 20:44:09 +0000 redityo 15532@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>You can try to use column_3 or column_4 in field custom css class, that would give you different width.<br /> Also, you can add "new_row" css class (on [field 3] and [field 5]) to make sure the field go to new line. You can use like this :</p> <pre><code>column_4 new_row</code></pre> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/problems-with-column_2#post-15526 Sun, 05 Aug 2012 02:40:02 +0000 Sunmoon 15526@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Hi yuniar,</p> <p>ah, thank you :-).</p> <p>How can i choose the distance between two column_2 fields? </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/problems-with-column_2#post-15524 Sat, 04 Aug 2012 21:31:35 +0000 yuniar 15524@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>1) Try to delete your browser cache, just in case it's still loading the old CSS file.</p> <p>2) If you have 6 fields, it will be arranged like this:</p> <pre><code>[field 1] [field 2] [field 3] [field 4] [field 5] [field 6]</code></pre> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/problems-with-column_2#post-15515 Fri, 03 Aug 2012 20:06:58 +0000 Sunmoon 15515@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>1. if i write in 2 fields at css: column_2, these fields are anyway in two rows.
