Hey folks - I've seen where DE8 can display an instruction / help message in a field when the field is blank or when the cursor is not in the field.  This is not the typical Help message that appears in the bottom Help message display area.  Could anyone tell me how to access/use this functionality?  Many Thanks

Hi

To display a message in the field do as follows:

Click on the Help tab withing the field definition

Type:     [@placeholder:Your text..@]

Always start and finish with the highlighted text.

Hi Josef - Your instructions worked Perfectly !   Simple yet effective feature.  Now I'm now adding the prompts and it will be a great help for the users. 

Many thanks!
