Why appearance matters for forms
Confusing layouts and hidden errors can make forms harder to complete. Appearance in Designer includes readable labels, consistent spacing, and visible validation feedback.
What you can change
- Field labels, placeholders, and help text (Main)
- Colors, fonts, and spacing on components (Style)
- Form-wide error and tooltip behavior (Settings)
What to prioritize
- Legible labels and logical tab order
- Enough space between sections
- Error messages users understand (see Custom error messages)
Summary
Readable labels, spacing, and clear errors help people finish the form. Start with structure and labels, then refine Style after the form works in Preview.
