Textarea Field

Multi-line input with no formatting. For a lead paragraph, an address, a short description.

Settings:

Setting	What it does
Field height	In pixels, 200 by default
Placeholder	Grey hint inside an empty field
Width	Share of the row, in percent
Default	What a new record starts with
Required	An empty value blocks saving

Output:

<p>{$description}</p>

Line breaks are characters, not markup

What the editor typed is stored verbatim, newlines included — and HTML collapses them. If the breaks matter, either give the element white-space: pre-line, or reach for RichText and let the editor produce real paragraphs.

Like Text, this type is offered to the translators and can supply the title in the moderation queue.
