OOUI/Layouts/Fields and Fieldsets

One of the most commonly used layouts is the FieldsetLayout, which is composed of one or more FieldLayouts or ActionFieldLayouts that contain a field widget, such as a form input. In addition to a field widget, ActionFieldLayouts contain a button.

FieldsetLayouts, FieldLayouts, and ActionFieldLayouts can be configured with a label. Both field and action field layouts can also be configured with help text, which is accessed by the user via a help icon in the upper-right corner of the field.

Note that each field and action field layout requires a widget object (e.g., a button or input field), which should be specified by reference before any optional configuration settings. A FieldsetLayout can only contain field and action field layouts, and an error will be thrown if another type of object is included directly. 

Field labels are aligned in one of four ways:
 * left: The label is placed before the form field (or other object) and aligned with the left margin. A left-alignment is used for forms with many fields.
 * right: The label is placed before the form field and aligned to the right margin. A right-alignment is used for long but familiar forms which users tab through, verifying the current field with a quick glance at the label.
 * top: The label is placed above the form field. A top-alignment is used for brief forms that users fill out from top to bottom.
 * inline: The label is placed after the form field and aligned to the left. An inline-alignment is best used with checkboxes or radio buttons.

The following is an example of a fieldset layout with an action field layout:
