### Tips & Best Practices
* Don’t use excessive values when setting things like Heights, as multiple steps or history elements may cause the field to become incredibly large
* If the history of the flow is not important, disable the history entirely!
* Enable the Use state color properties if you want a clear way to know what step the flow is in!
***
### Examples
A simple, and using default properties, **Flow** field looks like below.
When the current step is clicked (that being “Complete”), the form will save and move on to the next step.
The options presented here are “Reject”, “Assign” and “Complete”. What they do is not important. But each represent a follow up step based on the current step as can be seen in the very rudimentary **Workflow** created for this example. Notice how there are 3 options in the **Field** and the middle step has all 3 options light blue, meaning that they are set.
If the time gear icon in the top right is clicked, we can see the history the flow has gone through.
\
In this case it is only going from “Open” to “Intermediate Step”. But the whole history will be shown here.
If the “Use state color” property is enabled, the background colors of the steps will be given the relevant state color. As set in the **States List**.
