Hi,

Is there any way to have the form automatically close after a set period of
inactivity?

I have a back end that I want to be able to do work on after hours, and some
users leave their form open all night! So I want it to close after 60 minutes
of no activity in the form so I can work on the back end. (Perhaps there's
another way to do this?)

Thanks!!
