Building Blocks

Text block

Updated 2026-09-02

The Text block adds static text — a heading, an instruction, a section label — to the input area. It has no inputs and feeds nothing into your formulas. This article covers its size, weight, and styling options.

What it does

A Text block displays a title (and optionally a description) on the page. It's purely informational: visitors can't interact with it, and it isn't assigned to a spreadsheet cell. Use it to group inputs, introduce a section, or add guidance between fields.

Adding one

  1. In the Input tab, click + Add and choose Text.
  2. Click the block to open its settings.

Settings

The Text block keeps a slimmer settings panel than the input blocks (there's no Formula or Value group). In the Text group you'll find:

  • Title — the main text. Edit it inline on the canvas or in the settings header.
  • Text sizeSmall, Medium, or Large. Small is body-sized; Large reads as a section heading.
  • WeightRegular or Bold.
  • + Add description — click to add a secondary line of text below the title. See Common block settings.
  • + Add hover hint — click to attach an info icon to the title.

The collapsed Style group at the bottom of the panel holds Spacing (top and bottom padding in pixels) and Block background.

No interactivity

Because the Text block doesn't collect a value, it never appears in the spreadsheet, in responses, or in analytics. If you need a value-bearing label, use an input block instead.
