Designing Tables & Forms

Is it just me or does quickbase lack design options. 

Tables only seems to allow a vertical column split between fields across the entire form.
It does not seem to be  possible to have 1 row with a wide field column and on the next row having 2 narrow field in the same column. 




The width of dropdown fields don't seem to react on the field width settings either.


Any workarounds for this ?

    At this time, the best you can do is to introduce a new section heading. The lines between the sections may be disabled if that introduces too much clutter. Sections headings do not need to be labeled.
    Quick Base resets the auto column alignment where the section break is on the form and typically will allow you to get to a �good enough�solution.

    But yes, one day the drag and drop type forms design enhancement will come. But I have not seen any roadmaps for timing on that.

    It can fix the alignments by hiding the section header ... However I have to hide all of them or none at all, and some places they are pretty nice to have.

    Ya.

    So now the project deteriorates into making your own fake section headings out of formula rich text fields
