    Hi Dancenter,

    Thank you for reaching out to Jotform Support. There are some widgets you can use for this purpose. For example, you can use the Buy Tickets widget. Here are two helpful guides you can follow to set up your widget and process payments on your form (if needed).

    Hi,

    Thanks for reaching out to us for help.

    To create a seating plan, you can use the MultiSelect Grid widget. I've created an example form, you can find it here. Also, you can find the steps below:

    • Create form and select MultiSelect Grid from Widgets area.

    • After that, you will see the widget and widget settings. You can name the rows and columns as you want. And also you can arrange the width and height values of the widget from Properties section.

    Hi Dancenter, 

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. You can horizontally scroll in your MultiSelect Grid widget. Simply press the shift key and scroll the mouse wheel. Here is a quick demonstration:

    Thanks baris_ayyildiz,

    How to freeze the first row and first column please.

    When I drag the scroll bar, I won't know which seat to choose.

    I can see it's hover text, but it's really incovenience to look the seat by waiting to see hover text appear.
