Control settings
Following are the fields and options visible in the control settings dialog box for this form control.
Note: Several settings allow selection of Yes, No, or Expression. Selecting Expression allows you to construct a formula from reference tokens and functions. The expression must resolve to a Yes/No value at runtime to be valid. If the expression does not resolve to a Yes/No value, it will revert to the default.
Note: For information about the control properties tab in the Nintex Forms ribbon, see Control properties tab.
