Forms Item: Placeholder
Important
Information and features vary according to the roles to which you belong and the permissions associated with those roles. For more information, contact your module manager or your campus support team.
The Placeholder question doesn't collect information—it adds blank space to your form.
Tip
If you add a blank row to add space, it will be removed from the form. The placeholder gives you the flexibility to add blank space. NO RULES
