Infopath 2013 want display of error messages easier to find for user than default

Question

In an existing InfoPath 2013 form that I am working with, there are edits in the custom form that uses a custom list. Which is ok. The problem is it is hard to find all the errors if there are a lot of errors.
What I would like to do is have an error message display in red under every column where errors are located after the user hits the submit button.
Basically I would like to have some way of allowing the users to find all there error messages a lot easier after they hit the submit button.
Thus can you tell me if the above request is possible? If so can you tell me and/or point me to links that will have all the error message(s) easier for the user to find after they enter data in a column or they hit have save button.

Answer 1

I think you don’t like pop-up showing error message when you click the Save. It is automatically created by InfoPath form and user doesn’t have control over this behavior.
Best option would be not allowing user to submit the form if the form is not valid. How to do it is easy by using InfoPath rule.
1.
Disable InfoPath Ribbon.
2. Add custom submit button
3. Set up the rule to disable (or hide) the button if the form is not valid
You can enhance this form by display user friendly message in red next to each label or right above custom button.
