The default value can be a fixed value or derived from other fields values

An input mask format guides the user to type field value as per the specified format. Use the “Required” field settings to make the format mandatory.
e.g. This text box requires the value to be formatted as 1 (999)-999-9999 ext. 99?9
Use RegEx for complex formats. RegEx pattern doesn’t add an input mask, instead it validates the format when field becomes out of focus or during form submission.
e.g. This text box only allows lowercase characters from a to e.
RegEx: ^([a-e]+)$
This text box will capitalize the first letter of each word. Use “frm_capitalize” CSS class to enable this format.
