Hello, Currently trying to update a smart form but struggling a bit.

 

Any suggestions on how to Add three new text boxes (Including labels to the boxes) once a specific option is selected in a drop down box.

 

Simpleified version:

1) Select "X" in a pre-existing drop down box at the top of the page.

2) Three small text boxes become available for Data input.

3) Might need to move other text boxes down a page to create space.

 

Cheers in Advance

You can't move text around on the page. So the new boxes will have to be in a location that is already clear. 

Here's an article on showing and hiding fields:

To clarify, you can move text fields but not static text.
