Declaration
Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| FormFieldTextType | One of the FormFieldTextType enumeration values indicating the help text type. |
Available values:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Auto | One of the AutoText gallery’s entries. |
| Custom | Custom help text. |
Remarks
The status text shown in the status bar is defined by the FormField.StatusText property. When the StatusTextType property is set to FormFieldTextType.Auto, the help text should be equal to one of the AutoText gallery entries. Otherwise, the FormField.StatusText value is set to null when opening it in another word processing tool.
The AutoText contents are not embedded to the document. When the document with the form field whose StatusTextType property is set to FormFieldTextType.Auto is opened on another machine, the FormField.StatusText value is set to null as well.
Use the FormField.HelpText property to specify the help text displayed when pressing F1.
Note
The RibbonStatusBar cannot display the form field help text.
