For Fields
- Add a field to your form or locate an existing field and select the field to open settings in the left panel.
- Expand the More drop down.
- Check the box for Page Break After to force a new page after that field.
- Save.
Note

Tiling Images
You can set your photos so they appear as three tiles across the page. This comes in handy when you have a screen with multiple images that you would like to show left to right.

Check the option for Tile Photo.

Please Note
Regardless of the image size you select, tiled images will always show as the smallest size.

- Save.
