Custom Form Layout

I was surprised to not find this already in the idea exchange. Maybe its because I am on my 13th hour today.. so if this is duplicate please accept my apologies.

One thing I have been very frustrated with custom forms is how the data fields are displayed once the form is rendered. In the custom form setup you basically have two options, do I want this field to be next to the one before it or do I want it to be underneath it. If you get too many side by side fields then it rolls over to the next line anyway. Even Microsoft Access lets you design custom forms on a grid.

At least with dashboards you have the option of choosing some basic layouts (see image).
Would it be so difficult to give us the same layout options for custom forms?

So I humbly submit this idea - "Custom Form layouts".

If you feel as frustrated with the look and feel of your custom forms I would appreciate your votes!

Thank you for the submission! We think this is a good enhancement to the Workfront platform overall and this product area in particular!

 

Workfront currently prioritizes large-scale, foundational enhancements such as the new Reporting experience and changes to the core data model, so this item does not fit in our near-term roadmap. As such, I am marking this as Declined now, but we'll keep this in our backlog for the improvements for this area so that we can revisit the decision in the future.

Status changed to: Declined

Since this item has now been Declined (for now), I invite those interested to consider our UberCalc solution, which is a swiss army knife of functions you can use to enhance Workfront, such as generating job numbers, aggregating data, designing custom tabs with specialized workflows, and much more.
