How do I use the Tile Component?

Modified on Tue, 8 Oct at 9:17 AM

The Tile Component is a versatile container that allows you to control the column width of components within it.  Tiles are always placed inside a Section and can be nested within each other for more precise formatting.  Use Tiles to group components visually and create clean, organized layouts. 

When should I use a Tile?

Tiles are perfect for grouping components inside a Section with more precise control over their alignment.  Sections can then be grouped together using a Group component.

Organize Form Layout
Use Tiles to group related components, such as inputs and dropdowns, within a specific column width.
Nesting Tiles
Nest Tiles inside each other for more granular control over how components are aligned, yielding more create complex layouts.

Features & Configuration

Adding a Tile to your form is simple. Select the Tile option from the component library and drag it onto the canvas. Components can then be placed inside the Tile.



After placing the component, you can customize its properties in the right-hand panel:

Properties

Width
Set the column width for the Tile (between 1 and 12 columns) to control how much space it occupies within the Section.

Logic

Display Logic
Use Display Logic to control when this Tile is shown or hidden based on other form inputs.

Keep in Mind...
If the Tile itself is hidden, all components inside it will also be hidden — even if their individual display logic is set to show. The Tile's display logic takes priority over the components within it.
