As per my knowledge we can`t have more than 2 columns.

Hi Lavlesh,

Just as the previous comment stated, I believe within a form only two columns are allowed. I believe this is by intent due to a design best practice to limit a layout to 2 or 3 columns max.

You will have a bigger flexibility with service catalog and of course UI pages, UI macros and CMS pages.

Thanks,

That's not really a design best practice though. I think you are referring to best practices for page layout, not form layout. Such as, how do you properly layout a form with:
Prefix, First Name, Middle Name, Last Name, Suffix.

You can either do:
Prefix
First Name
Middle Name
Last Name
Suffix

Or:
Prefix                     First Name
Middle Name          Last Name
Suffix

Either of these options is terrible. The only one that makes sense is the first one which would make forms long, and those fields could easily fit on one line if you could define 5 columns for that line.

Hi lavi, thanks a lot for marking the responses as helpful.

Do you believe you can mark on of the responses as correct so that we can close this thread?

Thanks,
