Adjust the alignment of your WorkForm
Clicking on the grid icon on the right-hand side of your screen will allow you to adjust the placement of your WorkForm amongst its background. You can choose to align the form to the left, right, or center, and whether you'd like to have a frame surrounding it or not.

Choose the format of your WorkForm
When setting up your WorkForm, you can choose whether you'd like your form questions presented in "classic" format, or if you'd like the "one by one" format.
With the classic format, all the questions in your WorkForm will appear in one view. The form responder can see all the questions at once and simply scroll down as they complete the questions within the form.
The one by one format allows the questions from your form to appear individually while the form is being filled out, eliminating the need to scroll and navigate between different questions. Using this formatting type, the form submitter can focus on each question without being overwhelmed by the entire form.

Form and Text Direction
WorkForms also offer support for RTL (right to left) languages. If you'd like to change your form text to go from right to left, you can do so by clicking on the button with the two arrows on the far right of your screen.
Choose your question type

Add question and answer choices
Now that you've added a title and description (if you so choose), it's time to add and customize your WorkForm's questions! To begin, select "Add new question" and choose the type of question that you want it to be.
Hovering over each of the blocks within the question box will allow you to edit the question title and the question's optional description. If you've chosen a question type that requires pre-set response options, such as a single-select, multi-select, or True/False question, you can click into the options to edit them as you wish.
- Single select and Multi select questions
The single select or multi select questions allows the submitter to select either one option or multiple options from a list. You can easily add different options to the question, reorder the options by dragging and dropping them, as well as hide certain options from the submitter.
By clicking on "Question settings" in the bottom left-hand corner of the question box, you can choose to display your single or multi select options either as a list, dropdown or horizontally.
From within the questions settings, you can also choose how many options a submitter can select within the Multi-select question. To choose a limit, toggle on next to "Limit option selection", and select the amount of selectable options from the dropdown list.

People Column question
Wanting to assign an item to a specific person using WorkForms without having to create an automation? Not a problem. You can add a people column question to your form! The people column enables the form submitter to specify which member of the account is related to the submission and is very useful for any request type use cases.
Add conditional questions
Conditional questions allow you to display certain follow-up questions in response to a specific answer that the WorkForm submitter provided. This is a must for creating more in-depth surveys or questionnaires.
To create conditional questions on your WorkForm, begin by clicking on a single or multi-select question that you'd like to create a condition for and select "Include condition". From there, choose one or more responses and select "Add new question" to add the follow-up question.
You can also customize the follow-up question to allow for further choices by making the question a multi-select question.
Additionally, you can add multiple different conditions under each separate question by clicking "Add another condition" so that every separate response will lead to its own follow-up question! Take a look at the form below that contains multiple conditions depending on your answer to the "Which book are your requesting?" question.
Modify your WorkForm
You control which questions appear on the WorkForm and which will remain hidden, as well as whether they will be required to fill out, or not.
To customize the display of a question, click on a question block and select the question setting "cog" icon in the bottom left-hand corner. Use the toggle next to "Hide question" to hide or display the question on the form. When the question is hidden, you'll see an "eye" icon with a slash through it appear on the top right-hand corner of the question block.
You can also click on the "cog" icon to see further settings available for that question. These can include making a question "Required", setting the default date, and providing a timestamp.
The "Duplicate" button allows form creators to duplicate questions easily while creating a form. This can save time when creating similar questions in long forms. To duplicate a question, click on the question box and select the "Duplicate" icon located next to the "Hide question" button.
The column mapping icon will appear in the top right-hand corner of a question only if the question name does not match any of the column names on your board. When this icon appears, you can hover over the icon to see which column the information will be collated in. If the question and your column share the same name, the icon will not appear.
