Section Headers on New Forms

Hello,

It seems like there isn't any way to add a "Section Heading" element on QuickBase's new forms. On the legacy forms, I can add a section heading element as way to divide fields with a blue line (see the "Legacy Form" screenshot I've attached). On the new forms, I can't find any way to add a section heading. See the "New Form" and "New Form (Editor)" images I've attahced for reference on how the new forms I created look.

Are section headings not available on QuickBase new forms? Please let me know. Thanks in advance!

Here is some code for a Rich Text Formula field to make a fake section heading. You can play with the color name. For example "blue" also works, along with I'm sure, hex codes.

"<br><font size=2.5>"
&"<b>Weather Conditions</b><table style='border: 1px solid black; width: 100%'></table>"

New forms look different but they still have a section heading. Is there something about the headings on the old form that you're looking for in the new?

  Hey Maria,
  Yes, I would like to add a horizontal line in-between my "Provider Name" field and the two fields beneath it. I'm open to a work-around if we can come up with something.

    Mark's solution is the way to go. Rich Text Fields for the win!

New forms definitely have sections and you can control the heading. Are you referring to the appearance of that blue horizontal line? If so, New Forms don't have those blue lines. But they still is visual separation between the sections and they still have a heading.

  Hey Mark,
  Yes, I was referring to the blue horizontal line. That is what I'm looking to add onto one of my new forms. I would like to add that or find something similar to separate some of the fields on my form, but I haven't found anything usable on the new form's editor.
