Info
titleNote on Field Naming

All form elements have the attribute:

  • Name: This is a technical identifier that is not shown to the user. During modeling in the form editor, it is displayed on the top right of each element.
  • Description: Use this field to enter descriptive text for the form element in a text editor. This is helpful for documentation purposes.

Most form elements have the attribute:

  • Label: The content of this attribute will be displayed in the executed form as the element's name.

There are two exceptions:

  • Grouping: Instead of the label attribute, the grouping element has the field Header. The content of this field will be displayed in the executed form as the header for the grouping section. You can also hide it by disabeling attribute Show Header.
  • Subform: The subform does not contain a field to display a name, because instead of the subform element the assigned form is shown during execution.
