If you do not see a label once you've done that, view source where it should be showing to ensure it is being output to html. Then, if it is there (it should be) and still not showing, you might have a CSS declaration that is causing the issue. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-to-display-labelsdescriptions-inside-of-fields#post-258396 Fri, 17 May 2013 20:07:06 +0000 TBWMS 258396@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Is there a simple setting to display labels/descriptions inside of fields?</p> <p>Thanks. </p>
