    You have to click the Save button first before it is considered filled. This is how this widget works.

    Hello,
    If I click save, it automatically adds another field to fill in and will require to save again.

    Thank you for the response saying to save, but a new field opens up to add another row.  It did work and let me move forward with closing it out but i want to know if i can create two buttons.  1 to save and 1 to add a "row or field"?  this way if a new row is needed they have an option or if not they can just save and move on.

    Unfortunately, that widget does not have such an option. You may consider using a different widget, such as the Configurable List widget, which will consider each filled row as a saved one.

    Please check my form example: https://form.jotform.com/200555362224952

    Thank you for your response.  I like that example of that widget you provided.  I am new to jotforms and still learning.  I searched that widget and it looks different.  could you explain how i can modify the widget settings in the general tab to customize it to look like yours.  is there a way to use the form that you modified?

    Glad to know that you like it. You can configure the widget as shown on this guide: https://www.jotform.com/help/282-How-to-Set-Up-the-Configurable-List-Widget

    This is the fields configuration I did:

    Brand:textbox : Hint Text

    Part Type:textbox : Hint Text

    Part No.:textbox : Hint Text

    QTY.:textbox : Hint Text

    You can resize the text boxes so it won't overlap on the form. To do that, you can inject the following CSS code into the Config List widget settings.

    input[type=text] {

        width: 100px !important;

    }
