# Form Layout Stuck in Single-Column View

If your form appears in a single-column view even after selecting different layout types in the Form Builder, it may not be an issue with the layout configuration itself —but rather a misunderstanding of how layout preview works.

## ✅ Common Issues and Fixes

| **What Might Be Wrong**                                              | **What You Can Do**                                                                                                      |
| :------------------------------------------------------------------- | :----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| All blocks are set to **Layout 1 – Monogrid**                        | Use the **Layout** dropdown in each block's settings and change to Layout 2 or Layout 3 as needed.                       |
| You’re expecting layout changes to reflect inside the builder canvas | Layouts **only reflect in the Preview screen**, not in the builder canvas. Click **Preview Form** to view actual layout. |

## 🌐 Final Check: Layout Visibility

Once you’ve selected Layout 2 or 3 for multiple blocks:

* Click **Preview Form**
* Check if blocks are displayed side-by-side or in multiple columns
* If not, revisit each block’s layout setting

<Tip>
  ### Additional Tips

  * Start assigning Layout 2 or Layout 3 from the **second block onward** — the first block is always set to Layout 1 by default.
  * Make sure you’ve clicked **Save** after selecting layout options.
  * Use the **Preview Form** option regularly while building to confirm layout changes are applied as expected.
