If you wish to change the label of a field, or populate the field with a default value (for example, if you want to pre-populate an author field for a author-specific collection) then you need to change the element’s properties. To do this, you would select the element, and be presented with configuration options for that element.

Here, I can change the label presented to users interacting with this field, by changing the “Title” of the element. I can also change the description that appears underneath the field, by changing the text in the “Description” field. If I want the field to be pre-populated with the creator’s name, I can also indicate the name in the “Default Value" field. In addition, if I want to make this field mandatory for my form, I can select the “Required” checkbox, and this field will appear with an asterisk, and the form will not be able to be submitted without filling in this field. Once I have made these changes, if I press “Save and Preview,” I will be able to view the form as it will appear to my users.
