List fields
About this task
You can create list fields for the following field types:
- Text fields (single line only)
- Number fields
- Date fields
A list field allows users to choose one or more values from a list. You can create your own list values, or for Text fields you can specify list values using predefined Categories (for more information, see Categories and Keywords). List fields contain the following options:
- You can select the List type:
- Drop-down list
- Select box
- Radio buttons
- Check boxes
- Tree
- You can configure the height of a list for drop-down list or select box list types.
- You can configure the number of values per line for radio button or check-box list types.
- You can select the Allow multiple values box if you want users to be able to select more than one value for select boxes and tree lists.
- You can select or deselect the Mandatory box to determine whether the field must be filled in or not (not an option for radio button lists since radio buttons lists are mandatory).
