Fields get misaligned when using flowed in subforms

[Former Community Member]

Hi,

I am trying to use subforms and I have three of them when I try to change the attribute "Content" on the subform's object from "positioned" to "flowed", the fields get misaligned. Please help.

Thanks,

Vijay

"Flowed" subforms do not (as you have noticed) do not maintain the postioning of the objects.  You need to layout your objects, wrap them in a "Positioned" subform, then wrap the "Positioned" subform (so the object positions are maintained) in a "Flowed" subform.

Thanks, I also have another question. I am trying to work on adding a predetermined set of items recursively upon clicking a button using subforms. When I change the subform properties from "flowed" to "positioned" and back to "flowed" the add does not work. Do you have a suggestion?

When you do that the "Repeat for each data..." property on the positioned subform being wrapped gets cleared.  Check that you have reset that option.
