Component Settings
When you select a component on the canvas, the settings panel will display configuration options specific to that component. This section covers the common settings available for most components.
Settings Tabs
Settings are organised into six tabs in the right-hand panel.
| Tab | What it does |
|---|---|
| Display | Label, placeholder, description, disabled toggle |
| Data | Default value, multiple values toggle, calculated value |
| Validation | Required flag, length and range limits, custom validation |
| Conditional | Show or hide this component based on another field's value |
| Calculation | Advanced triggers for changing component behaviour |
| Technical Properties | Field key and internal properties used by conditions, calculations, and exports |
Some components have additional tabs specific to their type — for example, File has a File tab, and DateTime has a Date tab.
