The Radio component in Authorium's form builder allows users to select a single option from a predefined list. This component is useful when only one choice should be allowed among multiple options, such as selecting a preferred contact method, choosing a subscription plan, or setting a default option.
The options available to configure the Text Area elements are separated into four categories:
- Display
- Data
- Validation
- Conditional
Display
| Parameter | Description |
|---|
| Label | The label appears next to a form input field and describes its purpose clearly. |
| Description | The description is text that will appear below the input field. |
| Tooltip | Enter the text here that will appear as a tooltip to the side of this field. |
| Custom CSS Class | Custom CSS class to add to this component. |
| Inline Layout | Displays the checkboxes/radios horizontally. |
| Hidden | A hidden field that is still a part of the form but is hidden from the user’s view. |
| Hide Label | Hide the label of this component. This allows you to show the label in the form builder but not when it is rendered. |
| Initial Focus | Make this field the initially focused element of this form. |
| Disabled | Disables the form input. |
