This is doable but before I put in how to do this may I ask why do you have that many check boxes when a simple select box would probably suffice better?

I ask this because creating more than 2 columns makes it so it doesn't work with service portal. It's going to a none standard format and makes maintenance harder.

Thanks for the quick response Brandon.

So our requirement needs those many checkboxes where users can select more than one.

I tried using 2 columns but it is not working. So that is the reason I wanted to have custom columns

Sorry this took so long to get back to you.

You just have to use a container though and I wouldn't go more than 2 columns so that it works with service portal if you ever need it to.

It looks like you need a container split in there.

Also don't forget on the container start:
