Simple Logic
Give your users a guiding hand with simple logic embedded into your forms, including:
Required fields - Required fields ensure crucial data is input before a user can complete their form. For example, forms are often turned in missing time-sensitive data — Required fields eliminates this issue.
Visibility - Manipulate the visibility of fields, based on the data input into corresponding fields. For example, if a user were to check a Checkbox indicating they are a supervisor, additional fields to be filled out could be made visible. By altering the visibility of fields solely for specific users, form creators can minimize opportunities for irrelevant or incorrect data to be entered.
Background Color - Alert users to neglected form fields and important missing data (e.g. a forgotten Signature box) with dynamic Background Color properties, that change in response to specific input or missing data.
