How can we remove "Textbox1" from the fields in our form via the Signatures tab?
Hi Everyone
We are trying to create a form for our customers to sign to open an account with us. I have uploaded the form to Dropbox. Is it possible to remove the word Textbox1 etc from the field below. I appreciates that it disappears when they start typing however it would look better if each field was left blank. Hope this makes sense and appreciate any help
Hi Nancy
Have managed to find a work around this by adding several spaces in the field to trick the box into thinking there is a word present. Form looks perfect now

Hi SamC88,
Form design (or whatever else you decide to upload to Dropbox as a content) is up to you. It's your design decision and nothing related to Dropbox (or any other cloud service itself). Do you have any Dropbox related question?
Have a nice day!

Hi Thanks for the reply.
The form I am using needs to be completed by our customers and I used the fields below so they can complete online, sign and return. Is there another way I should be doing this please?

Hey SamC88! Just to clarify, is “Textbox1” only showing when uploading your form to our platform?
Also, are you using Dropbox Sign or the Signatures tab on www.dropbox.com?

Hi Nancy
Textbox1 is not visible to me however when I send to the customer to complete it appears. I am using the text box which is under standard fields.
I am only using the signature tab for the bottom of the form the rest of the form they need to complete

Thanks for clarifying, SamC88! One more thing I want to ask; do you wish to remove the text completely from the fields or modify it instead to something of your choice?

I understand. In this case, I’m afraid it’s not possible to remove this completely at the moment.
However, you should be able to change this from “Textbox1” to something else of your choice.
I can most definitely pass your feedback about this though to our team.

Glad you were able to sort this out; that’s a great workaround indeed!
For anything else, feel free to give me a nudge.
