Modifying a Form
It is possible to modify a form in any manner once it is created in LibreOffice Base. This flexibility allows users to customise
the form to meet their specific requirements and improve user experience. Some of the common modifications include
changing the background colour, adjusting the font size and colour of the text, and repositioning various controls in the
form. These changes not only enhance the visual appeal of the form but also contribute to better data organisation
and easier navigation.
