And using Cut and Paste in there to do what you want before importing the new form XML back into Gravity Forms. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/source-text-mode-for-form-editing#post-98848 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 14:13:34 +0000 steveschutte 98848@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Has cut and paste ability been added yet? It would really help save a lot of time and effort for current project. </p> <p>Thanks for your timely response. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/source-text-mode-for-form-editing#post-43079 Sun, 04 Dec 2011 18:13:34 +0000 bozzmedia 43079@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Looking forward to that update! Cut and paste in XML sounds like a workable solution in the interim, thanks! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/source-text-mode-for-form-editing#post-43068 Sun, 04 Dec 2011 16:28:18 +0000 Chris Hajer 43068@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You're not missing an options - it's not currently possible. The form builder interface is on track to be updated in a future version. </p> <p>You can export the form as XML and then cut and paste [in a text editor] to achieve the same result. But there is way to do what you describe presently. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/source-text-mode-for-form-editing#post-43015 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 04:01:55 +0000 bozzmedia 43015@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The user interface for editing forms is really nice, but as far as I can tell, you can only move one item at a time. From a developer's standpoint, it would be awesome if I could switch to some sort of 'Source' mode where I could cut copy and paste form fields without having to drag them individually.</p> <p>Is there a way to do this? Am I missing an option for selecting multiple form elements?</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
