You can select a layout for each form guide. Form guide layouts specify the type of navigation control that the form guide uses and the placement of the navigational hierarchy, guide help text, and data entry panels within the guide container.
Going forward the form guide layouts in the left column are replaced by the layouts in the right column. You are encouraged to update existing form guides to use one of these layouts: Cobalt Bar, Cobalt Standard, Cobalt Tree, or Workspace.
