iForm 7.0 has a revamped form menu, that provides more information about each form to the user and provides a finer level of detail for customizing the menu.
ENHANCEMENTS:
- The ability to change form colors
- Access to the form description
- New record status icons
- Customizable form property information
Please have a look below for details on these 7.0 enhancements.
Using Reference ID 5, you can adjust the color scheme for how each form displays in the Form Menu.
EXAMPLE: FORMBRANDING_FORMLABELCOLOR=#008BDC;FORMBRANDING_INFOBARCOLOR=#F29171;FORMBRANDING_INFOTEXTCOLOR=#89655A;
Below you will see the 5 different ways you can customize the look of the form view. PLEASE NOTE: If adding more than one code be sure to enter a semicolon after each code.

You can view more information about any form by pressing the 
icon. A new screen will open where you can see the description and look at other information such as version history. Here is what the description page will look like.
When you click on the version (as shown above), it will take you to another screen with some detailed information about the form itself such as modified date and the user who created the form. You may add custom rows as well to this screen by following the steps below.
To choose what properties of the form you wish to show, use the following example in Reference ID 3.
EXAMPLE:
FORMINFO_PROPERTYLIST=version,modified_date,modified_by
The table below will show what are the options to choose from when displaying the property list.
|
version |
Version number of the form. |
|
created_by |
Who originally created the form |
|
created_date |
When the form was originally created. |
|
modified_by |
Who was the last one to change the form. |
|
modified_date |
When the form was last changed. |
To add custom labels and values follow the example below where each (label,value) pair will create a new row on the screen.
FORMINFO_CUSTOMPROPERTYLIST=version,modified_date,modified_by,Custom Information,Customizable,Custom Information2,Customizable2

These are great enhancements. Any chance of being able to control the sort order in the Form Menu? Sort of like the SORTFIELD Ref ID in the Form Properties? For example, sort by form name, form label, or form creation date, etc.
