### ⚙️ Field Settings

Only the settings specific to this field are covered below. **Label**, **Description**, **Required**, **Hide label**, **Column width**, and other shared settings work the same across fields.

### 🧹 Clear

Customize the text displayed on the button customers use to erase their signature and sign again.

**Example:** Change `Clear` to `Clear signature` to make the button's purpose clearer.
