Reflects the current release of Nintex for SharePoint 2016. For your version, please access assistance through the Help button in the product.

Label control

The Label control can be used to place text anywhere on the form. Labels are often placed next to other controls to describe the associated control.

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.
