## **Parameters**

* **Form** - Form that you want to open.
* **Starting Plane** - ID of the Plane that you want to display when the Form opens.
* **Modal** - If unchecked, the actions after the Show Form will continue to run while the opened form is still open. By default, this option is checked, meaning the execution flow is paused until the opened form is closed.

**Advanced Options Variables**

* *Variables*
  * Variable - Local Variable of the Form to open that you want to initialize with Type and Value.
  * Type - Type to set the initialized Local Variable and also of the Value.
  * Value - *\<string>* or *\<numeric>* Expression to assign to the Local Variable.
* *Targets*
  * Target - *\<target>* Control or Variable where to save the first returned value by the opened form. A Form returns values through Close Form Action.
  * nth-Target - *\<target>* Control or Variable where to save the nth-returned value by the opened form. A Form returns values through Close Form Action.

{% hint style="info" %}
Kalipso Forms are modal by default, which means that the execution flow is paused until the opened form is closed. By unchecking the **Modal** option, the form becomes non-modal and the actions after the Show Form will continue to execute while the form is still open.
