Another option is, if you're using a!formLayout(), you can make use of its "Validation" property. With this you basically move the validations out of the individual components and move them to the general one in formLayout(). See forum.appian.com/.../SAIL_Recipes.html for an example.

One option is to place an empty, non-labelled section at the bottom of the form which includes the same validation as the fields, so that it displays the error message at the bottom of the form as well as on the fields themselves. You'd use the validations parameter on the a!section component as documented here: forum.appian.com/.../SAIL_Components.html

Yes, we have the same issue. Especially on larger forms. I guess the best way to avoid this is to keep the forms as small as possible. If more field are needed a wizard like editor could help split it up in multiple smaller forms.
