Hi everyone,

I think it is a very routine thing but I am not sure how to do that. I want to add a text box where I can provide background information/Detailed information to the user. For example, in the communication skills column, I want to include the below text so that the user should know what information he/she must put in the form. An example is below :

Hi @Anonymous,

as you are using power page you could just add a section above your form and display what you need.
So you seperate the form and the text in two sections.

For the form itself you need a column with data type multiline text which will create a textbox for the user to write more than just a few words.

If you want to make it obvious set the height with css to a higher amount like 100px and the box is displayed as shown in your image.
