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.
- Label Display: Determines the location of the field caption. Options include: Left of Field, Above Field, No Caption, Hide Caption. Note: this option was previously called Label Display. (See examples here.)

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 @typecaption@ or @statuscaption@.
