    Hi Melissa,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Are you referring to Hover Text? If so, you can add a Hover text to a field. Let me show you how to do that:

    1. In Form Builder, click on the Gear icon on the right-hand side of the Short Text field (or any other field) to open its Properties panel.
    2. In the panel that appears on the right, go to the Advanced tab.
    3. In the Hover Text Section, type the text you'd like to appear next to your field. How to add popup box next to a question Image 1 Screenshot 30

    This is what it looks like when previewed:

    If that’s not exactly what you’re looking for, can you explain a bit more so I can help you better? If you can share the link to your form, I can check it out and help you with a solution.

    Give it a try and let us know how it goes.
