A good component layout is extremely important for creating a good user journey. A layout can be the difference between a positive or a negative user experience, so it’s crucial to choose the most appropriate component layout for each of your forms.

Section component that allows you to break up a long page with many fields into logical sections. A Section has a section header and an optional explanatory text, plus it may have additional features, which allow uses to change the default layout, collapse, or and expand it.

Add components to a form to capture the data that is required to implement a Customer Experience. The term component is the general name for anything that can be dragged from the available components are displayed in Palette into a form.

Once you have deleted a component, you can’t undo this, because it removes the component permanently.
