Split Screen

The Split Screen feature in Smartform Design lets you work with your form layout and supporting tools side-by-side, streamlining both design and testing.

Layout and Views

  • HTML View:
    Always visible and located on the right side of the canvas. This is where you create and edit your Smartform. All changes to the form are made here.

  • Left Panel Views:
    You can choose to display either the Data view or the PDF view on the left side of the canvas.


1. Data View

  • Create Dataset: Define and manage the structure and sample data for your form.
  • JSON Body Preview: View and edit the raw JSON representation of your dataset.
  • Add Test Data: Enter demo values to simulate user input.
  • cURL Generation: Generate a cURL command for API integration and testing.

2. PDF View

  • PDF Preview: See how the PDF generated from your Smartform will look.
  • Refresh Required: After making changes in the HTML view, click the refresh button at the top of the page to update the PDF preview.

3. HTML View

  • Form Designer: Always present on the right, this is your main workspace for building and editing the Smartform.

💡 Tip: Use Split Screen to quickly switch between designing your form, testing data flows, and previewing the final PDF output.
