How to format text or add images in a Rich Text enabled Text Area Field
Text Area Fields and Rich Text Sections have a setting that enables Rich Text. This feature allows for additional text formatting (bullet points, hyperlinks, font styling, etc.) and adding images. Rich Test can be used in two places:
-
End User: Filling out a Text Area Field on a form
-
Builder: Setting up default text in a Text Area Field or adding guidance into a Rich Text Section
Note: To learn how to create a Field, refer to the Create Fields help article.
Enable Rich Text
To format text or add images in a Text Area Field, the Field must be enabled to Allow Rich Text in the Options tab.
Basic Text Formatting
To do basic formatting of text, such as bolding or italicizing, you can use the formatting menu buttons located at the top of the Rich Text Field/Section. Note that if you are using a Text Area Field, these menu buttons will become available only when you enable rich text as described above.
Adding Images
To add images to the Rich Text Field/Section, click the image icon in the header bar of the Field:
In the modal that appears, you can either add a URL where the image is publicly stored online on the "Source" tab or upload an image directly from your computer on the "Upload" tab.
Once uploaded, you can change the formatting settings in the modal or directly in the Rich Text Field/Section.
