  Key Concepts: 
  Form factor is a term used in the SAP Enterprise Portal (EP) to describe the size and shape of a user interface element. It is used to determine how the element will be displayed on the screen. Form factors are used to ensure that the user interface elements are displayed in an optimal way for the user.
  
  How to use it: 
  Form factors are used to determine how a user interface element will be displayed on the screen. The form factor of an element can be set in the EP Designer, which is a tool used to create and modify user interfaces. The form factor can be set for each element individually, or it can be set for all elements at once.
