Sections


1. To create new sections or edit existing sections, select the Edit button.



2. Select Add Section.



3. Select whether you want to add a New or Existing Section. Then select where you would like to position the section. 


Existing Sections are sections that you have already created that belong to other forms. Please see this article for more information on forms that share the same sections: Form Sections - Shared Sections



If you are creating a New Section, you will then proceed to the next window where you can name your new section. 



4. You can rearrange the position of your sections by dragging and dropping the section to the desired position.

To add Elements to the body of the Smart Form, select the Edit button. When Edit Mode is enabled, the toolbox shows all the Elements which are available to use to create a new form:
