Columns

Columns offer no interactions to the Users but are a container to place more then one other Form Controls in a row. To do this, Columns split the width of the Form into twelve parts of equal size. Then, each Form Control in the Columns can be assigned a share of the Columns' width. For example, if you want to place a Text and a Drop Down Form Control in a row, you can assign the Text a share of eight and the Drop Down a share of four of the overall column with. Consequently, the Text and the Drop Down are in the same row and the Text is twice as wide as the Dropdown. Any further Form Controls are added to a new row, since all twelve units of this row are taken. Columns can have an arbitrary number of rows.
