CF 5 multi line

How to manage multi-line field entries in ChronoForms 5.

Overview

Multi-line fields are treated as a single entity in the wizard, preventing individual field updates, and a bug prevents validation in mixed-type multi-line fields.
To modify a multi-line field, delete and recreate the entire entry. For validation issues with mixed field types, await the upcoming bug-fix release.

Im using CF 5 and have two questions regarding multi line entries:
1. How can I update an existing multi line entry? e.g. add an additional filed, delete an existing field or change the type of one of the existing fields. So far I always delete the whole multi field entry an create a new one, if I wish to change the content.

2. Validation doesn't work in multi field entries containig mixed types of fields (e.g. two text box fields and one radio box).
Thanks for any answer

Hi Mandi,

#1- is ok, this is how it works, multi fields are treated in the wizard like 1 single big field!

#2- This is a bug and the fix is available in the new upcoming release!
