Customizable Fields
Fields are now fully customizable!
- The built-in list of fields (now referred to as "field templates") has been reduced to a list of handy essential templates that can be fully modified or deleted
- "Text Line" and "Text Box" field types have been combined into a single "Text" type with a "Multiline" option that can be configured on templates or toggled dynamically on existing text fields
- You can now create your own field templates in with custom names, types, and other options
- Fields applied to file entries can now have their names edited
