Page Break

Summary

The Page field allows the creation of multi-page forms. The Page field is available under the Standard Fields section within the field library sidebar of the form builder.

Adding a Page field will automatically add three new markers to your form:

  1. a Start Paging marker at the top of your form.
  2. a Page Break marker in the position you dragged to.
  3. an End Paging marker at the bottom of your form.

Each one of these sections offer different settings, all of which are explained here.
