When to Use the Text Label Separately From the Text Field Label

Every text field can have a text label to describe what is to be entered into this field but it is not mandatory. Sometimes you wish to hide this label or place it in a location other than to the left of the text field. This is where T-Label field type comes in handy. Creating a separate T-Label allows you to place your text anywhere on the form.

Below are some sample screenshots of what I am describing. In the first example, the “Turnpike” label is considered part of a Text field. In the second example, the Erosion/Scour” was created as a separate Text label. It is not associated with any text field and provides you with a few more options to embellish it by choosing from three different fonts, a bold or italic setting, 14 different colors and the ability to align the text.
