Grid Layout in Add/Edit form? Take over the entire form?

Is there a way to organize the Add/Edit Form?

as i see it now it lists the fields and that's about it. Right now i have a form that has like 30+  fields (sadly it is needed) and scrolling through all of them is a pain. 

Is there a way to say that to make 3 columns and list the fields there 10 each? 

or better yet take over the form completely? None of that automated listing, rather i code in how it should be listed.

Sorry, was difficult understanding from your conversation as to what you wana take in control.. is it the list part / is it the form part .. form fields / display of the fields.. etc..

 

Please explain with simple steps of requirements and some1 may be able to answer / update on the same.

What is mean is that I want to take more control of the Edit/Add form/view. 

Right now as I understand it, it just lists the fields vertically. You can change the Fields output (callback_field) but not how it is listed. I want to take control over that so I can organise it better. 

like making three columns and listing the fields in there. 

 

does this make more sense?

Well, that makes much sense of the requirements. 

GroceryCrud is a library designed to generically serve almost everyones requirements. What you looking is specialization over the generalization. The same could have provided but it adds to much complexity. Well, there are examples already sheared earlier as how to do such alterations / modifications

 

Well i don't recollect the links for the same currently .. but i can refer you to a change that you can look in for the 

https://github.com/blakdronzer/POWER-GCrud/wiki/New-Features---Enhancements

Here you will find how i have already created a group by feature.

You can follow the code changes thats incurred to achieve a goal for yourself.

 

Happy GCing :)
