Is it possible to multiple forms on a library?

I have a library that I have put a Nitro form on but I am not able to create additional forms for the library. The new form button is missing. Is this by design?

I am checking with the dev team to see if this is an inherent limitation in SharePoint or if there is some other reason why the New Form option is not there.

For creating an item in a custom list, we use new form URL and we can pass form key as part of it. NITRO Forms will then read form key from URL to recognizes the corresponding form.
In document library, we can simply drop a file to create an item so we don't have a way to pass the form key and hence there is only one form supported.
However, we can achieve the required dynamic forms features using dynamic tabs/columns/group columns permissions based on the use case.

User manual on group column permissions: https://www.crowcanyon.info/nitro/appmanual_v2/index.html?column-permissions.html
We hope this information will help you, let us know if you have any further questions.
