A text field can be used to ask a variety of questions where the answer is less than 140 characters.

Your first task is to name the form field. The Field Name is the name that will appear in the Database to identify that particular field entry. Please ensure your Field Name has a limited amount of characters. Please also ensure your Field Name has no spaces. If a space is needed, separate the word with an underscore ( _ ), or begin each additional word with a capital letter.

Examples:

• firstName
• lastName
• email
• postalCode
• optin_communications

Once in the text field menu, you will have a series of fields to fill in. The most important ones are:

• Column Span: The width that the field will span. The columns ranging from 1-4 columns, with 4 columns spanning 100% of the iPad’s width. A typical text field will be 2 columns wide.
• Field Label Content: What the user will see as the question asked.
• Mandatory: Decide whether the form field is mandatory for the user to answer to proceed.
• Placeholder: What the user will see as a placeholder answer.
