In addition to the form objects described above, there are two types of form objects that cannot be filled in and are only intended for applying labels:
▪Labels
| Labels: Here, you can enter any labels that should be displayed in the form. |
▪Groupboxes
| Groupboxes are rectangles that can be labeled in the top left corner. They can be used for the visual grouping of related parts of a form. |
To insert a label or a groupbox, choose the ribbon command Insert | group Objects | Form object | Label or Group box.
The corresponding form object is then inserted as a frame. Now move it with the mouse to the desired position. To change its size, drag one of the round handles surrounding the object.
Note: To embed labels/groupboxes without frames in the body text, choose the command Convert on the contextual ribbon tab Object after inserting them. Click on the button again to convert the object back into a frame. The difference is that frames are fixed at a fixed position on the page, thus they don't move when you insert or delete text above them.
