Properties Tab
This is where you define values in a dropdown box, set the max length for an input field, create tooltips, and additional control customization. When you click on a control in your form, the Properties area displays the control’s properties so you can view and edit them. There are also form properties; click the toolbar at the top of the forms work area to access these.

The toolbar at the top of the forms work area is visible when you are designing your forms but it is not visible to you when you test your forms or when your users access your forms. The toolbar includes the following buttons:
- Click Preview to see the form as it will appear to users. You cannot enter data or click buttons in Preview mode (but frevvo’s Test ' Test feature lets you do this).
- Click Controls when you are finished working in Rules mode. If your form has no rules, you don’t need to use this button
- Click Rules to display your form’s existing rules, edit the rules, delete them, or create new ones. When you click this button, the left-hand portion of the Forms Designer becomes disabled until you click the Controls button. Rules are discussed in detail below
- Click Form Action to configure what users will see when they submit your form
- Click Doc Action to configure what happens to the data when they submit your form
- Click Finish to save the changes to your form
- Click Cancel to discard changes you’ve made to your form
- Hover the mouse over the left or right corners of the Toolbar to see the version number of your form. When you create your form, the version number will be zero. It will increase each time the form is saved by clicking on the Finish button. This feature can help designers ensure they are working with the latest version of the form.
...
It is also possible to hide one or both of these buttons by unchecking the visible property. It is common to hide the Cancel button and less common to hide the Submit. One example is if the outer application, a JSP for example, takes over the function of handling a submit and then programmatically submits the form. .
The behavior of the Cancel button has changed in version 5.1.1. In previous versions, the Cancel button performed a reset function simply reloading the form. Clicking Cancel in versions 5.1.1+ will display a confirmation message that the submission was cancelled. You can internationalize this message - it will be part of the form/flow strings even though there is no Cancel button for flows.
