How Can I Change Spacing Between Questions?

July 29, 2022

Jotform Form Builder is very flexible and you can customize your forms as you wish. Standard field spacing can be changed as well to fit your needs and match your design better.

When you reduce the spacing between questions, your form will be changed:

from this:

form-contact-us-1a

to this:

form-contact-us-1b

There are a couple of ways to do this. Here’s the easy way to change the spacing between all of the fields:

Question Spacing

  1. Click on the Form Designer icon.
  2. Select the Styles tab.
  3. Change the Question Spacing value (in pixels).
  4. Then scroll down and click on the Save button to save your changes.

Inject Custom CSS

.form-line {
    margin-bottom: 3px;
}

Advanced Designer

You can also change the spacing between form fields through the Advanced Designer. Still on that same Form Designer window, while on the Styles tab, scroll down to the bottom and click on the Advanced Designer button.
