    Hello GF team,

    Is it possible to achieve the following layout for a Survey form (Horizontal display) using the GF native functions? http://igienico.ca/images/form_layout_survey.jpg

    Or will it require heavy css modifications?

  2. Well, you can use our ready classes to place options inline.

    However - would something like one of these work for you? http://www.rocketgenius.com/survery-style-multiple-choice-fields-with-gravity-forms/

    YES! Thank you Rob, this is very close to what I was looking for (http://www.rocketgenius.com/survery-style-multiple-choice-fields-with-gravity-forms/), my only concern is, seeing that it's using custom classes, wouldn't they get lost once a new GF upgrade is available? Is there something similar to "child-themes" with GF where we can save our own custom css and not be affected by the new releases when we opt for the automated upgrade?

  4. You always want to put your styles at your theme level. You will not want to place styles in our plugin's forms.css file because they will get overwritten by updates. Setting classes on fields in the formbuilder will retain and obviously in your theme they will retain. If your theme has instructions on custom style placement, you should adhere to those as well.
