Using the Designer Preview

Introduction

This article walks through how to utilize the preview functionality in the designer. You can use the preview button in order to review and validate small changes in the form without having to create it in the inbox. This will reduce the amount of time it takes to build and test form calculations, conditional values, status changes and more.

Using Preview Mode

Step-by-step

  1. Navigate to the layers icon on the lefthand side and find the field "status".

  2. Click on the field and change the initial calculation to created.

    Once you click preview, you will be previewing the form in created status. If you have any fields, sections, or calcs conditional based on the status of the form you can use this method to test.

By giving the status field a constant value, it puts the form in that status. Meaning if you have sections you are working on that are only visible at the submit status, you can replace "created" with "submit" and when you run the preview you will see the form in submitted status.
