**Number of columns** is a required setting on [[Form Type - Field Grid|field grids]] that allows the builder to specify how many columns of [[Field|fields]] the grid will hold. Each [[Field|field]] displayed in the grid will occupy one column. Half of this space is dedicated to the field's [[Field#Interface Elements|label area]] (if applicable), while the other half is for the field's data area.
