I love the default layout as it’s quick, easy, and super clean. It’s very difficult to come up with something that clean looking by creating my own layout.
The only disadvantage of the default layout is you can’t place script buttons on it (that I know of). It would be really useful to do have this functionality. Either something like a “button field” or a setting in the Script Field to control if the script field will execute the included script automatically or by button trigger in the default layout field. Some simple UI examples have been attached.

You can add the script button {...} in the toolbar that displays all your favorited scripts. That’s what I do.
I like to use my keyboard shortcuts and use my QuickLaunch script extensively (https://lab.danielleu.com/tapformspro/script-library/index.html?p=Quick-Launch). It provides a pop-up that allows you to select the document script you want to run.
Another option is using a weblink field and linking this to the script url using the tfpro://... url scheme. You can get the script link in the script editor.

Thanks for the input, I’ll explore those possibilities.
I saw your website and see that you also see a lot of potential for some commercial applications with Tapforms. Employing this software in a commercial setting could potentially sell a lot of licenses to organizations. I think however, there is some room for improvement with respect to UI design in the layouts to make things more intuitive for a non-technical person. Even if power users can program these layouts for average users it would be beneficial.
TLDR: In my case, I’m creating a productivity/ business organizer in Tapforms because I just couldn’t get anything else to work the way I wanted them to. To this, I want to be able to hand over the synchronized documents to my wife so she can help me with the business admin. She has to be able to intuitively navigate around the forms/ scripts to get things done.
