Can I have default settings when using the prefare form so that an added text field, check boxes etc are a default color to highlight to the recipient that the section needs to be answered.

    Hi there,

     

    If I get this right, then you are willing setup a form filed like text filed, check boxes etc having a default color, so it would highlight to the recipient. Is that correct?

     

    While setting up a form field you may right click on the filed and go to> Properties...Appearance> Borders and Colors>Select Border Color and Fill Color accordingly. 

     

     

    If you were referring to something else, do let us know. 

     

    Thanks,

    Akanchha

    Thanks Akanchha for the reply but that's not quite what I was after and I apologise for not explaining myself properly.

    I understand (and have) used the properties tool/tab before to adjust text field colours etc after I have added the fields but in this instance what I was wanting is that the colour is preset and automatically added every time I go to add a text field, check button etc.

    As an example: I place the add text field and the box is already blue/yellow or whatever default colour I have set up for that document.  

     

    Thank you

    I got it!

     

    To keep the current setting as default. First apply these changes and then-

    Right click on the Form Field> select "Use Current Properties as New Defaults"

     

     

    These properties will be set for further

     

    Thanks,

    Akanchha
