The Long Text field type is linked to columns of type Long Text in the Alloy table.
This field type is designed to capture more extensive text inputs, such as descriptions, comments, or detailed notes, allowing users to enter multiple lines of text.
Define an initial text that will appear in the Long Text field when the form is loaded.
This can be useful for providing a template or example text that users can edit or build upon. If no default value is set, the field will remain empty, prompting the user to fill it in.
Provide users with convenient options to automatically insert specific data into the Long Text field.
There are three options:
Date Time: Users can quickly insert the current date and time by selecting this option, which helps in time-stamping notes or entries.
Location: This option allows users to search for and insert a location from a map, making it easy to add geographical data.
Barcode: Users can scan a barcode to quickly fill the field with the corresponding data, useful for inventory management or product entries.
Enable this to add encryption to the data entered in the Long Text field, ensuring that sensitive information is securely stored.
When this checkbox is enabled, it provides an additional layer of security to protect the data from unauthorized access, which is crucial for fields containing confidential or personal information.
