# How to add Suggested Text Options

Suggested Text allows you to define preset text options for a text element. This is helpful when you want users to choose from approved or commonly used copy instead of entering text from scratch.

Suggested Text is configured from the **Advanced Controls** submenu on a selected text element.

#### **When to use this**

Common use cases include:

- Providing approved messaging for a template
- Giving users a list of common text choices
- Improving consistency across Projects
- Limiting the amount of text users need to enter manually

#### **How to add suggested text options**

To add suggested text to a text element, follow these steps:

1. Select the text element in the editor.
2. Scroll to the bottom of the text settings in the left menu.
3. Click **Advanced Controls**.
4. Under **Suggested Text**, click **Enter Options**.
5. Enter a suggested text option.
6. Click **Add**.
7. Repeat these steps for any additional options you want to include.

Once added, the suggested text options will display over a text element when a user attempts to click into the text to edit it.

#### **Allowing custom text entry**

The **Allow Custom Text Entry** setting controls whether users can enter their own text in addition to selecting one of the suggested options.

When enabled, users can choose from the suggested text options or enter custom text.

When disabled, users can only choose from the suggested options that have been configured for the text element.

#### **Using suggested text in the editor**

When suggested text has been added, select the text element and click into the text. The configured text options will be available for selection.

If **AI Text** is also enabled and available to the user, its text generation and transformation options will appear alongside the suggested text options in the menu.

#### **Removing suggested text**

To remove an individual option, open **Suggested Text** and click the delete icon next to that option.

To remove all configured options, click **Remove All**.
