A '''Caption''' is the text used to identify a field.
For [[Custom Field|Custom Fields]] the '''Caption''' setting is used if you want to have a label for the field that is different than the field name. If the caption is not set, then the field name will be used as the caption.<!--: [[Image:CaptionSetting.png|link=]]:: will display as: [[Image:CaptionDisplay.png|link=]]--><!--In the case of most [[Standard Field]]s (other than those within a [[UTA]]) the caption can only be changed on [[External]] Pages. -->If you want the '''Caption''' to appear above the field instead of to the left of a custom field, select the "Label Above Field" option in the custom field settings.
In * '''Caption Location:''' Determines the case location of a [[Built-in Field]] the field <strong class="selflink">caption can only be changed on </strong>. Options include: Left of Field, Above Field, No Caption, Hide Caption. '''Note:''' this option was previously called '''Label Display'''. ([[ExternalLabel Display Options|See examples here.]] Pages. )
If you are using a [[Custom Field Type: Layout - Title Bar|Layout - Title Bar]] Custom Field to define the number of columns, but don't want the actual Title Bar to appear, choose "Empty Title Bar" from the Caption Location option.
== See also ==[[How do I display Note that the ''Caption'' setting is resizable, so when entering larger captions for a field beneath , the field%27s label/entire caption%3F]]can be seen.
==Disambiguation - Status and Template Captions==[[Templates]], [[Types]] and [[Statuses]] can be given captions as well. These captions will be used instead of the Template/Type/Status name when displayed to the end user. Where the name of the Template/Type or Status is returned by the variable @type@ or @status@, the caption can be returned using the [[Variable List|variable]] @typecaption@ or @statuscaption@. ==See Also==* [[Label Display Options]] [[Category:Glossary]][[Category:Custom Fields]]
