The FormTitan Textbox allows fillers to freely enter alpha-numeric data. If you wish for data to be entered in a certain format you can easily add a field mask to the Textbox, forcing the fillers to insert the information according to your formatting.
Using a field mask is great, however, when a filler enters data in a masked field, the value stored by formTitan as a result (in my submissions, emails, Salesforce Push) does not include the format text.
For example:
if you create the following mask to collect mobile phone numbers (05n)-nnnnnnn.
The form filler would then only need to enter 8 digits, for example: 42233555
and that would also be the value stored in the form.
But surely, in this case and many others, it makes no sense storing only a part of the phone number. What you really need is to store whole field value - including the fixed formatting characters. So you would save (054)-2233555
Can this be done? Now it can!
In this version we’ve added a property called ‘Use mask value’ in the Textbox’s Advanced settings. Once it is turned on the entire field value is stored, including the mask value.
