A Section is a container used to visually group a set of related fields on your form. Once you create a section, you can add any number of fields to it. You can also add as many sections as necessary to your form; you can even add sections within a section to create subsections.
Label
The label will display as the title of the field or the question that is being asked on the form. You can select the icon on the right to hide the label on the form. You also can use the pop-up formatting toolbar to insert values from other fields on the form.
Values from protected fields cannot be inserted into the field label.
Help Text
Help text can be used to assist the user by providing additional instructions. Help text will display directly under the field. Use the formatting toolbar to format text, insert hyperlinks and images, and populate values from other fields on the form.
Values from protected fields cannot be inserted into the help text.
Show This Field
By default, fields will always display on the form. However, you may want to hide specific fields or sections based on certain conditions, such as a selected value of another field on the form.
- Always – Field is always shown.
- When – Field will only display when specific conditions are met. After selecting this option, the Conditional Logic Builder dialog will display allowing you to select when the field or section should be displayed.
- For Roles – Field will display only when accessed via a role-based workflow link specific to the role(s) selected.
- Never – Field will never display.
Read-Only
Set fields and sections as read-only to create simple workflows with your forms. All fields can be made read-only, with the exception of fields that are already read-only by default (Calculation, Price, Content, Page break, etc.).
- Always – Field is always read-only.
- When – Field is read-only when specific conditions are met. After selecting this option, the Conditional Logic Builder dialog will display allowing you to select when the field is read-only.
- For Roles – Field will be read-only when accessed via a role-based workflow link specific to the role(s) selected.
- Never – Field allows user input. This is the default behavior."
Custom Error
You can set a custom error message that will display under your field when specified conditions become true. The conditional logic builder will allow you to add any number of rules for validating your field. Learn more about the custom error option.
