Data pillar Form tab: a compact Layout / Preview control with Add section and Add field at the right, field cards with a type tag and a selection ring, and a dashed "Add a section" footer #12451
Description
Source
Epic #12446, decisions 1 and 3. Measured on objectui main a2225f91, Data pillar, Form tab for crm_account: a second sub-tab row (Layout / Preview) with a trailing badge sentence, then an info strip, then a bordered card per section ("Basic Information") whose fields are bordered boxes with the label, a type word and a disabled input — five nesting levels under the object header. Section settings is an icon at the card's right; there is no "add" affordance in the toolbar.
Target
Under the object header and tab row of the Data pillar card:
- Form toolbar, 12 px vertical padding, white, bottom border: a compact segmented control (24 px items) Layout / Preview; a 12 px muted hint "Drag fields to arrange · click a field to edit its properties"; at the right "Add section" (outline chip) and "Add field" (primary-soft chip), both 28 px. The badge sentences of today's Layout / Preview row move into the control's titles; the read-only card owns the read-only strip.
- Canvas, sidebar-tinted, 24 px padding, 16 px between sections.
- Section card: white, 1 px border, 8 px radius; a 44 px header with a 14 px / 600 title, "N fields" at 12 px muted, a drag grip at the left and the section settings icon button at the right; a 3-column grid body (
repeat(3, minmax(0, 1fr)), 8 px gap, 12 px padding). A field that spans (textarea, rich text) takes two columns. - Field card: 10 px by 12 px padding, 6 px radius, transparent border that turns muted on hover; a 13 px / 500 label (red asterisk when required), a 10 px uppercase type tag beside it, then a 32 px skeleton input (56 px for textarea; a select skeleton with a chevron for picklists). Selected: 1 px primary border plus a 3 px primary-soft ring; the type tag turns primary.
- Footer: a dashed 44 px "Add a section" button under the last section.
Drag-and-drop, keyboard reordering and their announcements (objectui#11802, #11871, #11898) are untouched; only presentation moves.
File surface
packages/app-shell/src/views/studio-design/ObjectFormDesigner.tsx, ObjectGroupInspector.tsx (trigger only), StudioDesignSurface.tsx (the Form tab's sub-tab row and strips), packages/app-shell/src/views/metadata-admin/i18n.ts (the new toolbar hint; existing engine.studio.data.form.* keys stay).
Acceptance
- The Form tab shows exactly one toolbar row between the object tab row and the first section card.
- Selected field shows the ring; the selection opens the field inspector exactly as today (
DataPillar.inspectorBelongsToView-11781stays green). ObjectFormDesigner.test.tsx,dndAnnouncements-11802,keyboardDrop-11871,keyboardGrid-11898,roleDescription-11872,readOnlyDescription-11924,ObjectGroupInspector.test.tsx,DataPillar.layoutBadge.test.tsxstay green or are updated in the same PR for the moved badge, each ablated once.- Before/after screenshots, light and dark.
Constraints
- Tailwind utilities and theme tokens only; no inline style.
- Existing
data-testids and i18n keys stay. - Gates:
pnpm --filter @object-ui/app-shell test,lint,build. - Lands after the shared inspector card and the Data pillar card (the Blocked-by lines below).
Reference artboard
docs/design/studio-redesign/data-form.html on objectui main (landed in #12458); data-form.png is its 1280 px render. The folder's README carries the shared numbers and what a pull request against this card must show: two screenshots per artboard it touches (light and dark, 1280 px, cropped to the artboard's region), a deviation list with a reason per line, and the card's named tests green or updated. Where this card and the artboard disagree, this card's numbers win and the disagreement is reported here.

Body refreshed 2026-10-15T09:52Z by the epic PM session: a Reference artboard section added now that #12458 is on main. Earlier refresh 2026-10-15T08:17Z: the Blocked-by line now names the layout skeleton card #12459, which supersedes #12447, #12448 and #12449.

"summary": "The Form tab now draws one toolbar row under the tab row in Layout and Preview (compact Layout / Preview control whose items carry the old caption as their title, the new toolbarHint, and in Layout an outline add-section chip plus a primary-soft Add field chip), a flush sidebar-tinted canvas, section cards with a 44 px header, field count and the settings trigger at the right, field cards with a 10 px type tag and a primary border plus primary/10 ring when selected, and a dashed add-section footer. PM assumptions measured: (1) holds - inferColumns plus containerGridColsFor are kept and ObjectFormDesigner.test.tsx is unmodified and green, fixed 3 columns is deviation 1; (2) holds - the second sub-tab row and badge sentence were on main, layoutBadge test updated to read by title; (3) partly falsified - the designer already had its own Add field button on main (outline), now restyled as the primary-soft chip; it calls onAddField, which DataPillar wires to the same addField the More menu runs (one implementation, pinned by DataPillar.formToolbar-12451); (4) read-only behaviour left as is. ObjectGroupInspector.tsx needed no change: the trigger lives in ObjectFormDesigner.tsx.
