Description

Use the sharedText property to create labels or other fields with static text (the same on all cards where the field appears).

If a field's sharedText property is set to true, the content of that field is the same on all cards where the field appears. Changing the text on one card changes it on all the cards.

If the field's sharedText is false, it can have different text on each card where it appears, and changing the field's text changes it only on the current card.

If the field is a card field (not part of a group), its sharedText property has no effect.
