About This Feature

Overview

Button Settings is a built-in smart form feature in WPS Office for Mac for configuring the button experience in a check-in scenario. When creating a check-in form, you can open the related settings from Form Editor → Check-in, adjust the available options in the panel, preview the result, and then confirm the changes.

Its main tasks include:

  • Open Button Settings for a check-in form.
  • Adjust button-related options in the settings panel.
  • Preview the result and confirm the current configuration.

This feature is useful for attendance check-ins, event sign-ins, and recurring record collection where respondents need a clear submission entry point.

Capability SummaryProvides a dedicated Button Settings entry in the smart form check-in workflow, where you can open the settings panel, adjust related options, preview the result, and confirm the change.Microsoft Forms provides form-level settings such as response scope, start and end dates, progress bar, and thank-you message, but the official page does not describe a separate check-in button settings entry.Google Forms supports form editing, presentation settings, and a custom confirmation message, but the official help page does not describe custom submit button text.Notion Forms lets you adjust the submit button color and text in the submit screen, along with the confirmation title and body.Adobe Acrobat lets you add buttons to PDF forms and configure labels, icons, and click actions for interactive PDF workflows.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: WPS provides a direct settings entry for the check-in button scenario. Distinct: The path stays inside the check-in module of the form editor, which helps keep setup focused on the form workflow.Compared with WPS: Microsoft documents broader form settings rather than a dedicated button configuration flow for a check-in scenario.Compared with WPS: Google documents form structure and presentation settings, but its official help does not describe submit button text customization.Compared with WPS: Notion supports button text and color changes, but its form experience is built around database-backed forms.Compared with WPS: Adobe offers deeper button actions for PDF forms, but the workflow is oriented to interactive PDFs rather than lightweight check-in forms.

Overall Conclusion

If you need to configure a button specifically within a check-in form workflow, WPS keeps the entry point closer to the actual editing path. Other products also provide form or button settings, but their focus is broader form setup, database-backed forms, or PDF form interaction.
