How can I simply group Items in a DynamicForm just for clarity. Please see image attachment. I would prefer using SectionItems, but could not place SectionItem Horizontally. The Group attribute only exists in the Form. Is there any component I could use to group items in the form?
We are (planning on) replacing an existing application with smartGWT. This is a proof of technology (POT) project.
Please make me proud of the choice and the decision I am making.
There is of course no attachment on the original post, but I was just wondering the same (I think) thing myself. Take the “Various Controls” example in the showcase (http://www.smartclient.com/smartgwt/showcase/#form_controls_various).
There’s a ‘Select / Combo Controls’ group there. What if I wanted the first 3 SelectItems grouped, but not the last 2. Do I need 2 forms for that?
You can use two DynamicForms, one with isGroup:true and the other not, arranged vertically via a VStack. If the two forms edit the same logical entity, you can combine them with a ValuesManager.
