Use the Form Section element to insert a form section into a form. A form section is a sub-form that you can reuse in two or more forms. This is especially useful when you have several forms that differ slightly from each other but still contain an identical group of form elements. Creating and managing form sections is described in the section Form sections. The Section form element contains the following properties:

...

By default the Next Button will navigate to the next Form Step as defined in the form. If the routing should be different, then this can be configured through "Handlers and Routers" (see Routers).

The Next Button form element contains the following properties:

...

  1. Hover the mouse over the "copy" icon in the upper right corner of a form element:

    Click

  2. Click the ‘Copy to Clipboard’ icon. In Internet Explorer, the Clipboard icon will fade out and in and will be presented in an ‘enabled’ state. In Firefox, an animation showing a copy of the form element being moved to the Clipboard plays. For example:

    Element copied to the Clipboard

    A copy of the form element is now stored in the Clipboard.

  3. To place a form element from the Clipboard in a step in a form, click the Clipboard icon. Notice that as you hover the mouse over the Clipboard icon, a tool tip appears that informs you how many elements are currently on the Clipboard:

    Click open Clipboard icon

    After you click the Clipboard icon, the contents of the Clipboard and the Clipboard menu display. For example:

    Clipboard contents

  4. Select the form element from the menu that you want to paste in the form. The form element will be placed after the last form element in the current step.
  5. To paste all elements, select Place all elements from the menu.
  6. To empty the Clipboard, select Empty clipboard from the menu.
