Users and groups field after update to 3.1.3

Hello,

I have an issue - after update the SPFormsDesigner to version 3.1.3 I cannot choose Sharepoint Group as value in field, that has "Users and Groups" type. And also I don't see where is the property "Server side rendering" or "Client side rendering", that I was able to use in previous version (3.0.9).

Could you please give me a piece of advice - how can I change rendering from Client side to Server side for that field.

Thank you in advance.

Hi,
Nothing has changed with rendering people picker fields. So, check that the field is configured properly in its settings (List settings -> Columns). Make sure that it allows selection of groups:

Then restart Forms Designer and re-add the field onto the form (remove and place it again). It works fine for me:

As for client/server side rendering, now you can pick a template for a field. Say, a people picker field has 'SP2010' template which is the same as the client-side rendering in previous versions of Forms Designer:
