About editable help text fields
An editable help text field is a type of editable text field that displays the field label or other help text directly in the field, like the quick filter field in the FirstClass client. When users click this field to type, this text is hidden.

Attributes tab
Word wrap
Causes text that is longer than one line to wrap to the next line.
We recommend selecting this for fields that normally contain a lot of text, such as comments or notes.

The text you want initially displayed in this field.
This text can replace a field label or add guidance on how to fill in the field. The text appears dimmed.
