sprox and multi-column forms

[herb]

I'm using sprox to build a form where I have lots of fields. I would
like to display those fields in two columns:

label1 field1 label4 field4

label2 field2 label5 field5

label3 field3 label 6 field6

Is there any simple way to do it?

Also, what is the best way to change the text in the label? Finally,
can you give me an example where I over-ride Sprox's choice of field
type and change its attributes?

Thanks,
Herb

Uhm, I can't think of any quick way to do this apart using some CSS to
change positioning.

This is quite simple, you can put inside your form definition a field
with the same id of the field that you want to override.
This form for example overrides the "zone" field:

class EditSliceForm(EditableForm):
__model__ = Slice
__omit_fields__ = ['view_uid', 'content_uid', 'page_uid', 'view',
'slice_order', 'content']
__hide_fields__ = ['uid']
__field_order__ = ['uid']
__dropdown_field_names__ = {'page' : 'title'}
zone = SingleSelectField('zone', options=zip(acr_zones, acr_zones))
