Unable to add collection variable from one form to other forms using collection

Version 11 Forms Layout Designer
Updated May 26, 2023
asked on May 25, 2023

I came across something while using Forms 11 Update 3 with hotfix 1014419 in the Forms Layout Designer.  I have two forms with the same collection, I added a few new additional fields to the collection on one form and went to the other form to drag the variables from the variables tab to the form but everything is grayed out and I'm unable to access the new fields.

Is there a new way to accomplish this in the new designer?  Any ideas how to overcome this?

When you have the collection selected, there should be a link to "Add field/column from variable" below the variable name for the Collection.

This link is hidden if every available variable in the collection has already been added.

Thanks Matthew

I never would have thought to look there.  It would be nice to be able to drag from there to the canvas where I want it to be instead of clicking it and it going to the bottom of the form and having to drag it where I want it.

I agree - that would be nice!

Hey @████████or @████████ - any possibility of enhancing Forms to let us drag the fields into the designer from the table/collection "Add field/column from variable" instead of automatically adding it to the end?

I would love this enhancement! It definitely has my vote.
