My question is, I have 20+ fields but why the auto generated form has only 2 inputs? Is there a quick way to add in ALL fields rather than adding in manually one by one?
I actually had this same problem with the ADD button in the Transaction view and spent some time formatting the form and now I have to do it again.
Have you ever edited your “edit form”? The edit form is a form that is tied to a table and there is only one for each table in GDE. If for me, for a new table, it always displays all input components completely, except for tables that I have edited before.
As seen from my screenshot, my edit form has only 2 fields. To your question, yes I have edited it before but at the same time I do not remember removing everything except the 2 fields.
Then again, maybe it’s a user error on my part.
I’d make sure to take note for a new table next time.
Glide will make a “Best Guess” layout for your form, probably the first time you go into it. Once you start messing with it, Glide will not make modifications to the layout again without your involvement. Personally I always wipe out all components and start over because I want to design it my way. But once the form’s design is set, it will not change unless you are the one making the changes, and really you don’t want it to. Especially if you add a new column to the table that is not meant to be touched or seen by the end user. You don’t want things to start showing up in the app if you don’t intend them to.
