That’s not supported at this point, however, we’re currently developing a new layout for this cases — it will be represented the complex field as tabbed user interface rather than like accordion.
You can take a look at the new version here: https://github.com/m1r0/carbon-fields
You can take advantage of this by calling set_layout('tabbed') on the complex field.
We should be able to merge that to the master repository next week.
just tried it, it works great !
Glad you like it.
Please note that it’s still a work-in-progress feature, so it’s a good idea to take the dev-master version once we merge the feature to the trunk.
however, it would be nice to have an option to keep the fields vertically and closed, as if there is lot of fields they don’t fit horizontally.
Also for the end user it can be confusing as in the page the fields are displayed in a vertical flow, so if he drag and drop them with the tabs it will horizontally.
i am doing a sort of page builder with carbon fields
i mean with a few fields it’s really nice : http://webstantly.com/carbonfields.png
but with lot of elements on a page it can become like that :
http://webstantly.com/cf2.png
so it would be nice to have the option to have that by default http://webstantly.com/cfclosed.png instead of open
and then the ability to choose tabbed or not
of course i will update when it will be merged
This is a work in progress too, a personal project to build sites quickly with it 🙂
