Non-scrolling header in form view?

This topic is so basic I'm embarrassed not to have found the answer in old posts or elsewhere: Is there a way to have a header when in form view, that stays on the screen when you scroll down, the way it does in list view?

I have a layout that I don't want to be viewed in list view, with a lot of buttons and some other stuff at the top, and which is too big for my monitor. I would like to be able to scroll down without losing sight of my buttons, etc. at the top. - - - - TIA.

You could either isolate a single record and display it in list view, or in form view you could display the current record in a portal using a self-join relationship.

I don't see how that would work - a portal cannot be less tall than one portal row.

I would divide the layout into two (or more), using fake tabs to switch between them.

Oh yeah... the portal idea won't work, duh.

And longjump, if you upgrade to FM9 you can use real tabs instead of fake ones.
