If a reporting label is not set, the system will always default to using the field name.Note:
Field Labels themselves can be related to the field they are associated with, via the 'Field' property. This simply causes the text label to follow the behavior of the related field in the event of hide logic being used on the field. The 'Field' property of text labels does not impact field naming in any way.

General
Type – Fields that are similar in design can be changed to other field types. Using the Type dropdown a “Text” field can be changed to a “Memo” field type using the Type dropdown as shown in the figure below.
...
Text – selecting “Text” allows any combination of text, numeral and symbols to be entered into the field;
Memo – selecting “Memo” allows for the entry of large amounts of alphanumeric information into the field and allows for scrolling (for specific information about creating a Memo Form Field, see the Memo Properties section below).
Maximum Length
The Maximum Length field allows the Form Designer to set the maximum number of characters allowed in the field. If the Maximum length is not defined, the default length is 10 characters. To designate a Maximum Length for the field, simply enter the desired number of characters for the field to accept as shown in the figure below.
...
The characters on this page define what the user will be allowed to enter. Any other character used will be counted as a "literal" meaning it will be displayed as is.Note,
If the intention is simply to populate a text field fully, when the user does not need to enter any text of their own, field masking should not be used. The suggested method in that case is to use a text label and set the label to be included in the data exports.
ToolTip
The ToolTip field is an optional property that can be used at the field level to provide a “Tip” or “Help Message” explaining how to complete the field or provide a reason or explanation for the field. The user will see the tip message when they hover over the field on a desktop browser.
...
Special Type – The Special Type dropdown control allows users to designate the field for a special purpose including:
Medical Coding attribute
Randomization ID
Inventory Item
Barcode scanning (mobile compatible).
...
Validations
Validations allow the Form Designer to define conditions that a field(s) value must meet (or not meet). The most common method is via Conditional Actions Overview .
...
Width – This field allows the Form Designer to designate the width of the Text Field. The width of the field can be expressed in pixels or a percentage using the dropdown control.
Pixels – This dropdown choice allows the Form Designer to designate the width of the Text Field by the number of pixels.
Percent – This dropdown choice allows the Form Designer to designate the width of the Text Field as a percentage of the total Form width. For example: If the width of the form is designated in the form properties is 800 pixels and a Text Field Width of 50 percent is selected, the Text Field Width will be 400 pixels wide (half the width of the Form).
