--A form consists of one or multiple pages. The user starts at the first page and can navigate to other pages by pressing [[a button.>>doc:Button]] Each page itself contains multiple form elements that can be arranged in any way you like.
++The following elements represent all available form and design elements in {{designer case="dat"/}}. Additional JavaScript libraries such as //jQueryUI// or //datepicker// may be employed to enhance the available form elements or add custom functionality.
--Standard form elements are always available in {{formcycle/}}. Additionally you may create your own [[form templates>>doc:Formcycle.FormDesigner.ElementTemplates]] in the  {{designer/}}. By installing plugin, you can add additional elements for specialized purposes. Finally, it is also possible to include other elements and widget via third-party JavaScript libraries such as //jQuery UI//.
++{{subpages title="The available form elements" float="none"/}}
--The following standard form elements are currently available:
++== Positioning elements ==
--{{subpages title="Die verfügbaren Formularelemente" float="none"/}}
++When positioning elements via drag&drop with the {{designer/}}, the position where the element is about to be placed gets highlighted.
--== Positioning elements ==

  {{/figure}}
--Create new element by clicking on a form element in the element list to the left. Move the element via drag&drop into the form and to the position where you would like to place them. You can also take an existing element in the form and move it to another position.
++=== Positioning an element before, after, below or above another element ===
--=== Place an element inside another element ===
++When you move an element with the mouse, an orange bar will appear next to the closest element. Let go of the mouse to insert the element at this position.
--Some elements such as [[containers>>doc:Container]] and [[fieldsets>>doc:Fieldset]] allow you to group multiple form elements. To move an element inside a container or fieldset, click on the element and drag it over the container or fieldset.
++=== Inserting an element into another element ===
--=== Moving an element without drag&drop ===
++Elements of type [[page>>doc:Formcycle.FormDesigner.FormElements.Page]], [[fieldset>>doc:Formcycle.FormDesigner.FormElements.Fieldset]], and [[container>>doc:Formcycle.FormDesigner.FormElements.Container]] may contain other form elements. To put an element inside such a container, drag the element over the container and let go of the mouse.
--When there are many elements in a form, dragging an element from the top of the form to the bottom may get cumbersome. To make it easier to move element over a longer distance, do a double click on the element. This activates the element move mode and a small orange border appears around each element. Now scroll the form and on the position to which you want to move the form.
++=== Positioning elements without drag & drop ===
--In case you do not want to move the element after, press escape or click on the element again to get out of the element move mode.
++It may become difficult to position element via drag&drop when there are many elements on a page and you would like to move an element from the top to the bottom.
--{{figure image="designer_mode_move_element.png"}}
--Form elements can be moved without drag&drop as well. Just do a double click on the element, then click on the desired new position.
++Elements may be moved by double clicking on them as well. This will show all positions where the element can be placed. Move the element by clicking on the position where you would like to place it. Click on the element again or press escape when you do not want to move the element.

++Some elements such as pages or fieldsets may contain other form elements. Parent elements can sometimes be difficult to select when there are many elements on a page. When an element is selected, all parent elements are shown in the bar to the top of the {{designer/}} and can be selected by clicking on them.
--When you select an element, you can see that element and all its parent elements in the navigation bar to the bottom left of the {{designer/}}. By clicking on any of those elemnts you can select them as well. This is especially helpful to select elements just as [[pages>>doc:Formcycle.FormDesigner.FormElements.Page]] or [[containers>>doc:Formcycle.FormDesigner.FormElements.Container]].
