Smartsheet Basics
Smartsheet Basics
Ask questions about the core Smartsheet application: Sheets, Forms, Reports, Dashboards, and more.
Is there a way to format text on a form?
We would like to be able to perform additional formatting on our forms - to underline/bold text or have some text be a different color. Is there a way to do this that I am missing? I've reviewed the forums and help articles and haven't found anything that addresses this.
Thanks, Lisa

Is this feature now available? I see it called out in the Forms Best Practices video - about 8:20 into the video but don't see it available for myself. Does it require a special account type to make it available? https://help.smartsheet.com/learning-track/best-practice-webinars/forms

Unfortunately, it's still not possible to use formatting in forms, but it's an excellent idea!

@Victoria Welsh @Lisa Norton @Andrée Starå
You can now do text formatting for form title, form description, and field help text for the following:
- Bold, Italic, Underline
- Text color
- Text highlight color
- left, right, center justification
- Bullets, numbering
- Custom link text
Check it out and let us know what you think :)

I would like to be able to change the format of the Forms divider line too - I can't seem to change it from the rather pale grey
