About This Feature

Overview

Submit Button Settings is a built-in Smart Forms setting in WPS Office for Mac. It is used to manage submit-button-related options and confirm the final result before saving. When you create or edit a form, you can open Form in the form editor and then select Submit Button Settings.

Core tasks include:

  • Open the Submit Button Settings entry from the form editing interface.
  • Adjust submit-button-related options in the settings panel.
  • Preview the result and confirm saving before publishing.

This feature is useful for surveys, registration forms, feedback forms, and other data-collection scenarios that need a clear submission entry. It helps you review the submit-button setup before publishing and reduce mismatches between the form design and the final responder view.

Overall Conclusion

If you want to configure submit-button-related behavior directly during form editing, WPS keeps that path close to the form creation workflow. Other products also support submission or response-related settings, but their official guidance focuses more on overall response settings, confirmation messages, or PDF button actions.
