Multi-column layout

Multi-column layout lets you place fields side by side instead of stacking them vertically. The whole canvas switches into a two- or three-column grid, with per-field control over how wide each field is.

Choose a column layout

  1. Open the form in the builder.
  2. In the canvas header bar, use the column buttons next to the settings cog: single, two columns, or three columns.
  3. The canvas switches to the chosen grid. Every field card gains a width control.

Switching layouts is one click. Per-field width values are preserved in the form data even while the form is in single-column mode, so toggling back later restores the layout you configured.

Set field widths

Each input-style field card shows a width control whose options depend on the active layout:

  • Two columns — full width (spans the row) or half width. Two adjacent half-width fields sit side by side.
  • Three columns — cycle full → half → third. Third-width fields let three fields share one row.

Drag-and-drop reordering works exactly as in single-column mode; the grid auto-reflows.

TIP

Structural items (step breaks, custom text, the submit button) always span full width and don't show the width control.

Frontend behaviour

  • Desktop and tablet: the two- or three-column grid you configured.
  • Mobile: collapses to a single column. Fractional-width fields span the full row.

Field types that participate

Most input-style fields (Text, Email, Telephone, Select, etc.) can be set to a fractional width. Hidden fields, step breaks, custom text blocks, and the submit button are always full-width.

Limitations

  • Up to three columns.
  • No per-breakpoint width control (for example half on desktop, full on tablet).
  • No arbitrary drag-positioning — fields snap to row order.
  • No per-field margin/padding controls.

What happens if my Pro license expires?

Saved layout settings are preserved and the form keeps rendering in its multi-column layout on the frontend. New layout configuration can't be changed in the builder until the license is reactivated, but existing forms stay intact.
