What I’m trying to do
I love the idea behind Meta Bind but I can’t solve a really serious issue and what to check I’m not missing something?
I want to layout my input fields in a right floated callout or a table for meta data liuke as a summary/footer.
E.g.
But this isn’t possible? Is that true? When I click the input it goes to edit mode. If it’s in a callout it switches to edit the callout.
So the only way to use Meta Bind is having input boxes unformatted in a vertical list?
Surely there’s some way I can format them into a table across or a sidebar? Anything? Something?
I could have sworn I saw a template that had INPUT boxes side-by-side?
Things I have tried
I saw a GitHub issue pointing out the inability to put them in Callouts and Tables but it only had a hacky workaround I don’t really want to use.
To answer my own question and for others:
To have them not go to edit mode you can create an embed file then when you embed it you can do it without it going to edit mode.
