Bloc Layout and Visibility Settings
The Bloc Layout and Visibility Settings focus on hiding and showing parts of the Bloc Front End.
Use Customised/Full Width Layout
This is a replica of the setting that can be found at the top the Bloc Form Preview called used Use Full Width Layout.
Show Counts Area
Displays an area on the Bloc front end that shows counts of all the values in the data.
Please note, we are investigation the disconinuation of the feature to improve the performance of the data being displayed on the bloc. Due to the availability of more powerful counting field rules this feature is more redundant than it has been in the past.
Show Data Import Option
Enables the display of the data import from excel part of the front end of the bloc.
Show Element Borders on Bloc Front End
When editing a form in a bloc, you can see dashed white lines to allow you to have better visibility of the fields in the bloc and their location. This feature is mostly not necessary on the front end. However there are sometimes more complex Blocs where users may still want to keep these white dashed borders. This settings enables that.
Close the form after submitting
Once you have submitted the form, or updated an existing record, with this setting turned on the form will close.
Hide Advanced Report Option
Hide Submit Button
Removes the Submit Button from visibility on the bloc.
Hint: A bloc is more than just a form, it is quite normal to want to use blocs just to display some information or pictures.
Hide Update Button
Removes the Update Button from visibility on the bloc (i.e. when Editing a record)
Hide Delete Button
Removes the Delete Button from visibility on the bloc (i.e. when Editing a record)
Submit Button Text
This is the text that will replace "Submit" in the form, e.g. "Create it Now"
Add New Button Text
This is the text that will replace "Add New" in the form, e.g. "Add New Staff Member"
Update Button Text
This is the text that will replace "Update" in the form, e.g. "Update Invoice"
Delete Button Text
This is the text that will replace "Delete" in the form, e.g. "Remove Staff Member"
Hide Add New Button
Sometimes we may just want to see data or the form on the front end. This hides the "Add New" button on the front end if the form is closed.
Hide Form on Page Load
This hides the form when you load the page so that your display will only show data.
Hint: Using this along with the "Hide Add New Button" will allow you to create a page where you can only see data and not enter anything into a form.
Hide Export All Data button
This hides the Export All Data Button on the front end of the bloc.
