Simple Text Block Element

The Simple Text Block Element allows a user to create a Text Block, which may include one word or numerous paragraphs of text. The Simple Text Block dialog provides no rich text editing tools. If it is necessary to restrict a user to only submitting straight text and for that user to be unable to manipulate the text, then a simple text block Element is appropriate.

After inserting the Element within the page, click on its Element Tool icon to display its menu:

For information on these options, see:

• Simple Text Block

• Textblock Properties within the Formatted Text Block Element. The way you use the dialog is the same. Notice the Permit Rich Text Editing option. If this is not selected, you are working with a Simple Text Block Element. If you select it, you will be working with a Formatted Text Block Element.
