Managing Display Names in Forms using Add Labels

The Add Labels feature allows you to modify the display names of Forms and form items. Let's assume that the form with the Form Id, FORM_ACCOUNT_TYPE has been created using Canvas Studio.

Perform the following steps to manage display names in forms:

1. Open the form in the Form Designer in Canvas Studio.
2. Click a field on the form. For instance, click the Title form item.
3. Click the Plain label icon.

By default, the name of the form item appears in the Plain label field.

1. Remove the default text that appears in the Plain label field.
2. After removing the name from the field of Plain label, click Display Name Key icon.

A text field appears.

1. Enter the display name key in the text field and press Enter. For instance, the word TITLE can be used.

1. Once you have applied changes with Display Name Key to all the form items that you have used in your form, proceed to click Add Labels icon.

Note: The Add labels screen will get enabled, if there is at least one form item with a display name key.

The Resource Bundle Entries Page appears.
The Language drop-down box allows you to choose your preferred language. For new languages, refer the Prerequisites mentioned above in the procedure.

1. Select your desired Language from the Language drop-down box.

1. In the Form Item Labels tab, click the Phrase for fields and enter the display names. You can choose any of the fields, for which you wish to modify the display names. The following screen shot showcases the new display names.

1. After changing the display names for the form fields, click Save.

The Resource Bundle Entries get saved successfully.

1. Click OK.
2. Click Save icon to save the form.

After you save the form, a successful confirmation message appears, with a reference number.

Let's assume that the form is already mapped to the CUSTOMER DASHBOARD workspace in the functional application (e.g. Modelhouse). The following screen shot serves as a good illustration of the output in the functional application, Modelhouse.

The following table illustrates the different form types, which possess the Plain label configuration. Certain form types listed in the table do not possess the Plain label functionality.
