Horizontal rule

Last modified on July 10, 2024

A horizontal rule is used to visually separate different sections or content blocks within a form. It provides a clear division between related but distinct parts of the form, improving readability and organization.

Navigate to the editor and open your form.

How to create a horizontal rule field in FormApe

Using a horizontal rule

Using a horizontal rule in forms can help improve the visual structure and readability of the form.

• Separation of sections: If your form is long or collects different types of information, horizontal rules can help separate these sections, making it easier for users to understand the form.
• Visual break: A horizontal rule can provide a visual break in the form, which can be particularly useful if the form is lengthy. This can make the form appear less overwhelming and more organized.
