Supported display modes by field type

The following table lists the display modes that are supported by each field type. You select a display mode when you add a single-value field to a form. By default, all fields have a display mode set to Optional.

Complex field types, such as field groups and field group lists, are not listed in the table because they do not have an overall display mode.
