New Features in Laserfiche Cloud
Improved Forms End User Experience – Designers now have the option to add labels for table rows guide users through filling out tables. End users can now view images and PDFs they submitted without downloading them while working on form, including the ability to expand and zoom into the image.
Forms Layout Designer – The Form Designer now has all the functionality of the Classic Form Designer and will be the default when creating new forms. The new designer includes all recent designer updates such as custom JavaScript support, dynamic validation, and enhanced field rules.
Dynamic Form Field Conditions – Dynamically apply validation to form fields based on a value of another field while the user is filling out the form. For example, the value entered in the “start date” field can make sure the “end date” field can only select a later date.
New Forms Token – The URL of where the form is saved to repository can now be used as a token throughout the rest of the business process. These include variables for the Folder Attachment List, Folder ID, Folder Link, Folder Name, and Folder Path.
