Re: Form Design: How to Place Tabs within Sections?

Tabs and Sections form a very basic hierarchy where Tabs are (typically) the umbrella that Sections fall under. Of course, as you've found, you can't actually put a Tab "inside" a Section, only below/following one. If you're wanting to setup sub-sections, you can do this with a combination of Text and Section elements.

To start an area of sub-sections below a given Section header
  • Insert a Text element and insert <table> into the element and turn on HTML for that element
  • Add your Sub-sections using the standard setup (Section headers and fields)
  • Insert another Text element at the end of the Sub-section and insert </table> into the element and turn on HTML for that element
While this won't give you exactly what you're looking for, these sections will collapse with the main Section header and will be indented underneath them when the Section is not collapsed.
