Custom Form Layout Strategy
I'm starting to get requests (finally!) for more complex form layouts. The image is one example. I often have multiple columns and rows and we want form fields in specific orders. I've got that working pretty well with
Grid::make() . I've also used Split and Section for some of this. For more complex grid layouts like the screenshot here, what's the best practice? Grid only? Splits for left/right + grids for rows/columns within a split? Some of these get nested/ugly fast and just curious how everyone is solving this. I've also done it with custom views.
I often have to come back and edit these forms later so trying to start off the right way. Would love to know how you guys handle this.Solution:Jump to solution
I'd probably do it with a custom layout component.

That's a good idea. I like how reusable that would make it too. Sketching out ideas for how to implement it. Thank you!
