FormIt cannot display a generic error message

The FormIt docs are not clear on error messages. With dafyk’s help on the IRC channel, I figured out that I can get FormIt to display an error per required field.

However, I have a very complex form with a lot of required fields. The background color of the required fields is different than the other fields. All I need is the ability to display a message such as "All required fields were not answered. Please make sure to fill out all fields with a yellow background are filled out, and try to save the form again."

I’ve been told that I can install the if package and put together a complex query where I check ~30 fields for FormIt error messages, but it just seems to me that FormIt is doing it already but I don’t know how to access the generic message.

Once I figure this out, I can help to put better docs together for FormIt, but the error documentation is insufficient to answer this question.

I hope somebody can help me out here. Thanks.
