"add all" to mobile canvas

Hi, my desktop version is close to finishing so I started working on the mobile app but I have to add all components one by one. Why not add an "add all" like the "regenerate" button on tables? Perhaps I'm missing something and you can do this but I didn't find it in the docs.

Found it: right-click and "Generate form from data". I clicked it (a few times) and nothing happened but now there is a pop-up where I can select the fields!

Hello @PeterV, Welcome to the Retool Community!,

Retool doesn’t currently provide a built-in “Add All” functionality for components in mobile responsive apps. However, I found a similar post in the community about mobile responsiveness—you can check it out for more details and updates.

Thanks! I think there's a bug in this option, now all fields are gone from the modal and I had to restore to a previous version. Had a small panic attack :grinning:

We don't have a feature for this yet, but I'll reach out here if it is something we ship :blush:

I think I know what mistake I made: I had made a modal and added a form to submit the data. I added all the fields to the mobile form but didn't do this with the underlying form so it showed nothing in mobile mode. Switching back to desktop also showed an empty form (so I think that might be a bug?). After adding the form to the mobile view, all worked as expected.

Hm that does sound a bit buggy :thinking: Thank you for sharing the steps to reproduce it. Glad it's working for you now!
