Export form in QGIS 3.8

Question

In QGIS 3.8 I would like to export the code/structure of my data-forms.

I have created them via the "drag-and-drop"-surface.

Does anybody knows a solution to export it (as an xml- or ui-file)?

Answer 1

At the bottom of the layer properties window there's a small dropdown menu called style. When choosing save style you may save symbology, labelling, and e.g. data forms - short, any customization you did - to a .qml file. This file may also be used to add the customization to any other layer of the same feature type, though some things like data forms only make sense, if the attribute table of that layer has the same columns.

Pro tip: If you're lazy, you may use set as default in order to save all your customizations of the layer to its current storage location with one click, without having to navigate there or typing in names. Downside: This doesn't let you choose which parts of the customization are to be saved and which are to be left out.
