Each setting property is described below.

See Layouts and Styles and the CSS Class property for more form/flow styling options.

On this page:

Width

This specifies how wide your form will be. The default “wide" is 800px, but the dropdown also includes thin (450px) and regular (600px). You also may pick the custom option; this will enable the box to the right of the Width dropdown and let you specify your own width.

Height

This property specifies an initial height for your form as it is loading into the browser. It does not dictate the actual height. You typically do not have to edit your form’s height property since the form can resize dynamically. However if your form is very small it can improve the appearance as your form loads if you set height to the actual height of your form.

See Embedding and Using Forms for details on configuring the actual form height.

Controls

This property applies whether the options you define for checkbox and radio controls will be displayed vertically or horizontally. In the current version the property is always to set to vertical and cannot be changed.

Layout

You can choose one of the layouts provided by from the Layout dropdown to alter the appearance of your form. The choices are Nouveau, Compact and Tight. Nouveau gives your form a clear (white) background and a submit and cancel button with rounded corners. New forms are created with the Nouveau layout. The Compact and Tight layouts are similar to Nouveau with adjustments made to the horizontal and vertical spacing between the controls. Refer to Layouts and Styles for the details.

Print margins: Top, Bottom, Left and Right can also be specified.

Headers and footers can contain:

Templates

Print Margins

Set the print margins for the pdf by entering values in the Top, Bottom, Left and Right property fields.

Print Margins (Top/Bottom/Left/Right)	Used to configure the width/height of the page margins appearing in the print PDF view.	Specifies a margin in px, pt, cm, etc. To specify a margin in inches, use the abbreviation "in" without the quotes. For example, for a 1 inch margin on the top/bottom of the pdf, enter 1in in the Top/Bottom property fields.	0.

If top/bottom margins are not set and a header or footer is specified, then the appropriate margin will be defaulted to 50px.

Print Headers/Footers

Specify the header/footer content using the Print Headers and Print Footer properties at the form or flow level. These properties do not appear on the form designer when inside a flow.

Property Name	Purpose	Notes	Default
Print Headers

Center	Used to specify a print header appearing in the center.	Header will appear centered. Accepts templates for control values.	Empty
Right	Used to specify a print header appearing to the right.	Header will appear right justified. Accepts templates for control values.	Empty

Specialized templates values that are supported in headers and footers are detailed in the following table:

Template	Purpose
FREVVO.PRINT_PAGE_NUM	This will be replaced by the current page number in the PDF print output. The template name must be enclosed in curly braces when specified in the header/footer fields - {FREVVO.PRINT_PAGE_NUM}
FREVVO.PRINT_PAGE_COUNT	This will be replaced by the total number of pages in the PDF print output. The template name must be enclosed in curly braces when specified in the header/footer fields - {FREVVO.PRINT_PAGE_COUNT}
<image_control_name>.img	This will be replaced with an image tag sourced to the internal url of the image for an image control appearing somewhere in the form/flow. This can be used to place an image into the header/footer that is contained in the form/flow (no external dependency). Replace <image_control_name> with the name of the image control.and enclose the template in curly braces - {<image_control_name>.img}. Note that the image will be displayed in its true size.
<image_control_name>.url	This will be replaced with the internal url of the image for an image control appearing somewhere in the form/flow. This can be used to place an image into the header/footer using your own markup that is contained in the form/flow (no external dependency). Replace <image_control_name> with the name of the image control and enclose the template in curly braces - {<image_control_name>.url}. Also, this can be used to force the image to a certain size (using width/height attributes).

FREVVO.PRINT_PAGE_COUNT Template in Headers/Footers

The template works best with flows designed using Linked Activities. These types of flows result in a single linked printable form. It will not work as reliably in a flow design that uses multiple forms.

Images in Headers/Footers

When you use the {image_control_name.img}, outputs <img src="the image's url"/>. This will output the image in its normal size. In this case, that is 174x170 pixels for the color grid.

You can instead use something like: <img src="{<image_control_name>.url}" width="50" height="50"/> to size the image smaller to fit.

If you want the image to be its true size and not be cut off, then you need to set your margin top and bottom accordingly.

If you don't set a margin size for either top or bottom and you also set either a header or footer, then the system picks an arbitrary margin height of 50px, for the header/footer that has the selected value. It is up to the designer to adjust the top or bottom margins to display the image as required.

HTML in Headers/Footers

Invalid markup in a print header/footer field will result in it being rejected and cleared off of the field in the form/flow designers. If there was a previous value in the field it will display. Correct your HTML to continue.

Avoid special characters in the Print Headers/Footers. For example, using an &, <, > or any other special characters in the print header/footer can prevent your form/flow from generating the PDF and submitting successfully.
