      3. Sections Display Properties

      App developers can now offer their users one of four distinct methods to interact with the form builder's sub-sections. The four methods are:

      a. Sections as list

      25.1 FB-sections as list GIF

      b. One section at a time

      25.2 FB-One Section at a time GIF

      c. Sections as tabs

      25.3 FB-Sections as tabs GIF

      d. Sections as tabs, except the first section

      25.4 FB-Section as tabs except first GIF

      4. Highlighted Fields 

      This drop-down displays all the element fields in the app. You can select any 3 fields. The data of these 3 fields will display along with the task message.

      EXAMPLE
      Let us take a leave application. If an employee applies for leave, his/her manager will get a task to approve or reject the application. 

      Now, let us assume, the leave application has been created with 3 fields, i.e., Employee Name, Leave Date and Type of Leave (Privileged Leave, Comp Off, etc), while publishing the leave application if you select Employee Name, Leave Date and Type of Leave fields in the Select 3 Field Elements to show data in tasks drop-down.

      • According to the above example, the data of these fields will display in the task that is generated for the manager.
