Converting Elements to Text

If you have a long list of checkboxes and want to convert them into clickable lines, use the 'Convert elements to text' feature.

1. Select the elements you want to convert.
2. Right-click to bring up the context menu.
3. Choose 'Convert > Selected elements to text'.

All selected elements (checkboxes, dropdowns, multi-select dropdowns, and buttons) will be converted to text. Any lines that were not pre-selected will be unselected to preserve the original 'unselected' state.

Converting Text to Buttons

To convert multiple lines of text into buttons:

1. Select the text content (it can span multiple lines).
2. Right-click to open the context menu.
3. Choose 'Convert > Selected text to buttons' (or use the button icon in the toolbar).

Each line will be converted into a button. If the text contains commas, they will act as separators, creating buttons with multiple choices.

Note:

Buttons do not support logic. Converting fields in a template that have logic assigned will break any associated conditional actions.
