Property	Description
Field Name	This is the name used to reference the field and is also the name of the column heading in the submission bin.
Field Values	For Ratings, each field value represents a rating increment, which displays on the form as one of several clickable stars. Click the button to display the Field Values window, in which you can add one or more Data Values. Adding a data value also adds another star to the form. Remember, a Data Value is a reference name for an item in a form. In the Display Value column, you can enter a user-friendly label for each item. Learn more about the Bind Value in Bindings. To add new Field Value, click the add button. To delete a Field Value, click the delete button.
Tooltip	Enter a short help comment to display nearby when the user hovers over the element.
