Display Design-Time Formatting in Forms 2.0
In Smart View, you can now display formatting defined in the form when working with Forms 2.0.
In 24.11+, form designers can add formatting rules to forms configured for Forms 2.0. This is often referred to as "design-time formatting."
In Smart View, using the Apply options in the Formatting group on the provider ribbon, you can display cell styles, native Excel formatting, or the design-time formatting as follows:
Cell Styles: Applies only cell styles to the form, such as read-only cells, locked cells, supporting detail, attachments, and so on. No custom (format-only) rules are applied.
Custom Styles: Applies format-only rules that were defined in the rule builder at design-time and Excel custom formatting that users can add in Smart View.
No cell styles (such as read-only cells, locked cells, supporting detail, attachments, and so on) are applied.
Custom and Cell Styles (default): Applies both cell styles (such as read-only cells, locked cells, supporting detail, attachments, and so on) and format rules (including Excel custom formatting added in Smart View) to the form.
This is the default style option.
