I found a couple places where the good people here gave users jquery code to relocate the field description to below the field name rather than below the field. The best of those I read was here:
http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/option-to-display-field-descriptions-above-field
I wanted to pull the description up tighter to the field label and pull it away from the field, so added this css to my custom.css file then uploaded to my server in the theme's folder:
.gform_wrapper .gfield_description {
padding: 0 0 0;
}
Just in case this might be helpful to someone, until the developers create push button control for this action.
(Other threads were closed, so posted new, add this to one of those if you like, don't mean to clutter.)
