Hi!

How can I design a custom layout for editing a specific table? My table has many fields, and I’d like to be able to display some of them in 2 or 3 columns…

This is possible, but I haven’t gotten around to writing a tutorial.

You can assign a template to any fieldgroup using the template directive in that fieldgroup’s section.

e.g.

Code: Select all

[fieldgroup:foo]    template=mytemplate

I’m going to have to get back to you on the variables that are available inside the template as I’ll have to check my records….

I would be very interested in how to do this as well.
