Forms sidebar in light mode
The update of the forms toolbar to light mode not only brings a fresh visual style, but also ensures consistency across the user interface. This update serves as the foundation for improvements and innovations in the forms builder. By establishing light mode, we are kick-starting the development of enhanced features and functionalities. This transition sets the stage for building upon light mode, allowing us to create a more cohesive and intuitive experience for our users.
General form layout styling upgrades
A new accordion pattern within the sidebar, serving as a dedicated space to house all the essential functions for styling forms. This pattern efficiently organizes and consolidates various form styling options such as layout, background, color, max width, form border, padding, and corner radius. By implementing this accordion-based approach, you can conveniently access and customize these styling elements, enhancing the overall design and aesthetics of your forms. This streamlined arrangement simplifies the form customization process, providing a user-friendly and efficient interface for creating visually appealing and engaging forms.
1500 new fonts and style to enhance customization
