Description of the content types

Simple text

This content type just shows the label as you already know.

Collapsed text

The collapsed text originally shows the user only the text that you entered in the title. This text is highlighted as a hyperlink and has a small triangle at the left side to indicate that it can be expanded.

When the user click on the collapsed text, it will expand to reveal all the content.

This content type offers you two options:

1. ) a folded content
2. ) a modal dialog containing the content.

Both types can be used with or without animation
