Form Editor

The Form Editor lets administrators control exactly which fields appear on a Form, where those fields are placed, and how those fields act. This is a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor; that is, the preview displayed here shows how the form will be displayed when viewed through Lucity Web.

Select Form > Save to save all modifications to the Form and continue working.
OR
Select Form > Save and Close to save all modifications to the form and close the Detailed Form Editor.
OR
Click the button on the toolbar.
OR
Click the in the corner of the Form Editor. The following pop-up appears:
Click Save Changes. This action will save all modifications to the Form and close the Editor.

Note: Once the Form is saved using one of the options above, it appears in the Form Manager. The Form can then be edited as needed.

Important: Saving a form clears the web cache. This ensures that any changes made to existing forms will be immediately available to end users; however, if a form is actively in use when it is saved, users will receive an error message and the changes they are making will be lost. Users will need to close their browsers and restart Lucity Web in order to access the newly saved form. We recommend that existing forms not be changed at a time when they may be in use.

Select Form > Close from the Detailed Form Editor menu,
OR
Click the in the corner of the Form Editor. The following dialog appears:
Select Abandon Changes, and the Form will close without being saved.
