Note: The TEXTEDIT stack item can be used inside a stack container like a group, or as root element of the STACK container: When used directly under the STACK container, the TEXTEDIT stack item must be the only element in the container. It is rendered as a scalable form item that can stretch to fit the front-end screen size.
