# FormFieldType (Complex Type)

### Namespace: http://midpoint.evolveum.com/xml/ns/public/common/common-3

Supertype: AbstractFormItemType
A single form field. This definition is expected to render a short, compact visual representation of a single item (property, reference or container). If a container is represented as a field, it has to be a very compact representation of the container, usually by using custom widget that creates a pop-up when clicked.
