Customize a Data Entry form with Sections

$

Hey y’all,

I am building out a few Data Entry forms as part of migration away from MS Power Apps to DHIS2. I am becoming familiar with the different types of forms, such as Default, Section and Custom and have created a few Custom forms. But this is a bit of a time-consuming process, so I was wondering what customization options there are for Section forms.

Specifically I am wondering if I can create columns using HTML on the page somewhere, so that all my sections don’t appear in one long scrolling column on the left side of the window. I have attached a GIF to show you what I mean regarding a specific form.

When I create a Section in the Data Set customization menu there is a box labeled:
“Content before and after section (HTML links and basic styling allowed).”

But it appears to ignore my attempts at adding in HTML tags to this box. What HTML is recognized here by the Section form? Just tags? Can I do anything with

or or will these be ignored.

Thanks in advance for the clarification!
