Form View

Form view is used to display and edit a single content item.

Fields

Each field within a content item is displayed on its own row with the label to the left or above and the value input and controls to the right or below. The input and controls displayed depend on the type of field. However, many fields have one or two common controls.

Help - Click to display information specific to the field and how it can be used.
Open - Click to open the field content. If the field contains a collection of content items, they will be opened in a collection view with select mode, search, etc. If the field contains a single content item, it will be opened individually, typically in Form View.

For information on each type of field, see Form View Field Types.
