Customizing forms

Customize forms to meet your needs

Ninox was developed to offer all users as much design freedom as possible. Of course, this also applies to one of the centerpieces of each table: the form.

Customize forms to your liking. This applies to their layout, but also to the fields included in them. Ninox grows with your needs.

Opening the form in edit mode

Let’s take a look at the Events table that we have just created.

In the Event Management database, click the Events table.
You can see the form in the foreground on the right. The corresponding table is behind it.
Enable the edit mode by clicking the wrench icon in the upper right corner. The edit mode is enabled when the icon is red.

The form is in front on the right-hand side, the corresponding table is visible behind it.

Adjusting the field size

To customize a specific field, hover the mouse over the corresponding field. A dashed gray frame becomes visible and the mouse pointer becomes a cross. Click in the field.
The field is outlined with a red frame with one or 2 handles.
Customize the field according to your needs.
Don’t forget to save! To do this, click on Save changes in the upper right corner.

The field clicked for editing is outlined in red with (in this case) 2 handles

When you’ve finished, don’t forget to save your changes.

Move the mouse over the corresponding field. A dashed gray frame becomes visible and the mouse pointer becomes a cross. Click in the field.
