Text

Sets or returns the text of the element that is then displayed on the form for a label, button, group or tab.

Tip You can use vbCr, vbLf and vbNewLine to force a line break, but those work only when used for rich client modules. For thin clients if you need multiline text you need to insert several elements each having a single line text.
Note In previous versions the text element may be used for localization. For Kofax Transformation Modules 5.5 and later versions it is highly recommended to remove any related script code for localization issues and use the built-in function for the translation instead.

Visible

Displays or hides the element on the validation form and pane.
