This article will summarize how to use the Disclaimer Text Component in Template Builder.
This component is used to display static text, such as disclaimers, instructions, or informational messages, with rich text formatting options.
Where to Find It
In your Corfix Form Builder, click on the Disclaimer Text Component to access the configuration panel. You’ll see four tabs:
-
Display

Conditional
Content Area / Rich Text Editor
The large area at the top of the component dialog, along with the formatting toolbar (Paragraph, Font sizes, Bold, Italic, Alignment, etc.), is where you directly enter and format the "Disclaimer Text" content. This area effectively serves as your real-time preview of the text as you type and style it.
1. Display Tab
The Display tab controls the general appearance and identification of the Disclaimer Text Component.
-
Label:
-
This is the title for your disclaimer text section. While it's a required field, the label itself might not always be prominently displayed to the user on the final form, depending on how the component is rendered. It's more for identification within the form builder.
-
Example: "Disclaimer Text", "Important Notice", "Instructions".
-
-

Best Practices for Disclaimer Text Component:
-
Clear and Concise Content: Write your disclaimer text plainly and to the point. Avoid jargon where possible.
-
Use Formatting Wisely: Use the rich text editor (bolding, lists, etc.) to improve readability and highlight key information, but don't overdo it.
-
Place Strategically: Position the disclaimer text where it makes sense in the form flow, usually before related actions (e.g., "I Agree" checkboxes).
-
Use Conditional Logic: Hide disclaimers or instructions until they are relevant to the user's specific selections, keeping the form focused.
