About This Feature

Overview

Submit Button Settings is a Smart Forms configuration feature in WPS Office for Windows. It is used to manage the entry point, parameter setup, preview check, and save flow for a form submit button.

Core tasks include:

  • Open the Submit Button Settings entry: go from the form editor to the related settings area.
  • Adjust submit button parameters: complete the button setup in the settings panel.
  • Preview the submission result: check the button display and interaction before saving.
  • Save and publish the settings: make the updated submit button setup take effect for respondents.

This feature is useful for surveys, registration forms, and internal workflow forms. It helps reduce missed setup items before publishing and keeps the submit experience easier to review in one editing flow.

Overall Conclusion
If you want to configure, preview, and save submit-button-related settings directly during form editing, WPS offers a more concentrated workflow. Other products also support post-submission feedback or button actions, but their focus is more on overall form settings, publishing flow, or PDF form creation.
