''Maximum Length'' is a setting on custom fields that support text entry, such as [[Custom Field Type: Text – Multiple Lines|Text – Multiple Lines]], [[Custom Field Type: Text – Single Line|Text – Single Line]] and [[Custom Field Type: Text – Special - Rich Text|Text – Special - Rich Text]]. <!--[[Image:MaximumLengthSettings.png|link=|600 px]] -->
* ''Show Counter'': Determines whether a counter will be shown to the user.
* ''Count Words'': Sets the counter to count words (instead of characters, the default).
* ''Exceeded Maximum Message'': Message the user will see when they reach the maximum length<!--[[Image:MaximumTextDisplay.png|link|600 px|link]]-->
Users can enter content that exceeds the limit initially and then edit appropriately before saving/submitting the record. The content is not truncated if pasted into the field from another source, but the character/word limit will still be enforced on save/submission.
