Label Element
The Label Element allows you to display non-editable text on your form, such as instructions to the user. You can use it where you only need a few words or one or two lines of simply formatted text. For larger amounts of text or to include bullet points or a list, use the Paragraph Element instead.
Once you have placed a Label Element on a page, you can edit the Element's properties to configure the Element for your requirements. Select the Element on the page to display its properties in the Properties Pane.
The following properties are available:
Visible and Disabled Properties
Text
Allows you to specify the text you want to display. You can enter multiple lines using the Return key to start a new line. If necessary, the edit box will display a scroll bar on the right-hand side. Standard Windows editing features apply.
Alternatively, you can read the text to be displayed in from a Datasource. This input mapping is available here on the Appearance tab within the Text property; this Element doesn't have a separate Data tab. There is no output mapping available for this Element since the user cannot interact with it in the finished form.
If you specify an input mapping, the mapping will be displayed, in the Form Design workspace, in the format {<datasource>.<dataset>.<dataitem>} in place of the text and the in-line editor will be disabled, since you don't need to be able to edit the text as this will be supplied from the datasource. For example:
You may need to reload the form to display the input mapping. The mapping is only shown in Form Studio and isn't displayed on the published form.
