  • Mandatory: If checked, the field is required and shows a * next to it.
  • Unique: If checked, the field value cannot be repeated.

Conditions

Set field properties like Read-only, Disable, and Hide.
  • Read-only: If checked, the field is read-only.
  • Disable: If checked, the field shows but cannot be edited.
  • Hide: If checked, the field is hidden on the page.

Width

Width: Widget width as a ratio of the page width. Set the widget width to make the page look better and more professional.

  • 1/4: Widget is 1/4 of the page width.
  • 1/3: Widget is 1/3 of the page width.
  • 1/2: Widget is 1/2 of the page width.
  • 2/3: Widget is 2/3 of the page width.
  • 3/4: Widget is 3/4 of the page width.

Default Value

Set a default value for the widget (defaults to "Please enter" if not set). This reduces user input, speeds up processes, and prevents invalid entries.
