Feature: standard Form layout 2 columns - left label, right value

### Please confirm that the feature request does ***not*** already exist - [x] I confirm there is no existing issue for this feature request. ### Use case the current standard form layout label above field value requires a very high amount of concentration at data entry and reading. the floating "New Form" offers this layout, and is displayed after opening the side form AND clicking full screen. would be helpful if full screen form could be opened directly from grid a "compact form" would be very helpful - grid style - label left column right aligned, value right column. currently many forms have to many fields and do not fit on "one" screen and need scrolling - a contextual visual screening is not possible if not all fields are visible. Key Usability Rule: "Below the Fold" When a user must scroll to see the rest of a record, the fields that are hidden are classified as being "below the fold." UX best practices dictate that critical, high-priority fields must remain "above the fold" (visible on initial load) so the user doesn't miss vital context before they start scrolling. IMO - ideally there shouldn't be any fields below the fold. ### Suggested solution

The choice between placing a label above or to the left of the value/input field is a classic UX debate. There isn't one "correct" answer, but there is a clear winner for most modern digital forms.

Here is how to decide based on how users read and interact with data.

The Winner for Most Scenarios: Labels Above

Placing labels above the field is the standard best practice for the vast majority of web and mobile forms.

Pros | Cons -- | -- Fastest Completion Times: Eye-tracking studies show users only need a single vertical eye movement to scan from label to field. | Takes Up Vertical Space: It makes forms much taller, forcing more vertical scrolling. Mobile-Friendly: Adapts perfectly to narrow smartphone screens without squishing the text. |   Flexible Label Lengths: Works beautifully if your labels are long or translated into languages that require more words. |  

How to Choose (The Decision Matrix)

Use this quick checklist to decide which layout fits your specific record view:

• Choose Labels Above if:
• The form will be viewed on mobile devices.
• The form is an intake or creation layout (e.g., "Create New Account").
• Fast completion and low cognitive load are the main priorities.
• Choose Labels on the Left if:
• It is a dense, desktop-only business application (B2B dashboard, CRM, ERP).
• You need to compare many records or fields stacked vertically.
• You are displaying a read-only "Detail View" where saving vertical screen real estate is critical.

Pro-Tip on Alignment: If you do choose labels on the left, right-align the text of the labels so they sit flush against the input fields. This fixes the eye-tracking issue and makes the form much faster to read.

the best would be to have the option to choose what fits best for the app. my very personal preference is to get a compact (above the fold) grid view like presentation of records also in forms ### Additional context this is an example form view from openerp/odoo
