I am working on an app that need to have 8 questions answered. 6 are Number Entry and 2 are check boxes. The problem is that the Number Entry fields take up a lot of room and so to see the results of the calculations the user will have to scroll down some way. I am not exoecting a soulution but it would be nice to have suggestions as to an alternative layout… Also I can’t seem to add any text as the data box is not available and the text box is showing the data list! ![Screenshot 2020-05-25 at 21.38.01](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/d/dd6c0a28d2142e411aa4f146197c6c7ef83c356f.png) Please have a look at the app if you have time… [https://4yehe.glideapp.io/](https://4yehe.glideapp.io/) Thanks Mike ---

Not sure of a good solution for the space taken up by all the components, but here are some random thoughts. - Using a phone, you may have more screen real estate and actually see more fields on the screen compared to the builder or a computer browser. - You could use hint text instead of a label for the entry field. Would be confusing once everything is filled in though. - You could create checkboxes or switches to hide and show certain entry fields. - You could move the result field to the top of the screen. Here’s how to add custom text. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/7/703c9e5a8f51830be022c34b358eebe404d934a2.png)
