Causes text that is longer than one line to wrap to the next line. We recommend selecting this for fields that normally contain a lot of text, such as comments or notes. |
Contents tab |
Text |
The text you want in this field. This is optional. Only type text if you want to specify a default value for the field. |
Maximum length |
The maximum number of characters that can be typed in this field, if you want to limit the length of editable text. If you don't impose a limit that fits the size of the field, and users enter text that is longer than the field, the text will scroll as they type. |
