You can interact with cards most easily in the right-hand pane after you select a form control in the design workspace. In that pane, you can choose which fields to show, how to show each field, and in what order to show them. This example shows an **Edit form** control in an app built from a SharePoint list that's named **Assets**.
To get started with cards, see [add a form](add-form.md) and [understand data forms](working-with-forms.md). The remainder of this topic goes into more detail about how cards work and how you can customize or even create your own.

## Predefined cards

Power Apps offers a predefined set of cards for strings, numbers, and other data types. In the right-hand pane, you can see the variations available and change the card used for a field:
In this example, a single-line text card is selected, but the URL's text is longer than can be shown on a single line. Let's change this to a multi-line text card to give our users more room to edit:
Several fields of this data source aren't being shown, but you can show or hide a field by selecting its checkbox. This example illustrates how to show the **SecurityCode** field.
Cards comprise other controls. In an **Edit form** control, the user enters data in a standard **[Text input](controls/control-text-input.md)** control that you add from the **Insert** tab.

Let's walk through an example of how to change a card's appearance by manipulating controls in it.

1. First, let's return to the card that we inserted most recently, for the **SecurityCode** field. Select this card by clicking or tapping it once:
![Select text input](./media/working-with-cards/select-text-input.png"Select text input")

3. Move this control within the card by dragging the selection box, and resize the control by dragging the handles along the edge of the selection box:
![Customize text input](./media/working-with-cards/customize-text-input.png"Customize text input")

You can resize, move, and make other modifications to controls within a card, but you can't delete it without unlocking it first.

In addition to containing controls, cards themselves are controls that have properties and formulas just like any other control. When you choose to display a field on a form, the right-hand pane automatically creates the card for you and generates the needed formulas. We can see these formulas in the **Advanced** tab of the right-hand pane:
We immediately see one of the most important properties of the card: the **[DataField](controls/control-card.md)** property. This property indicates which field of the data source the user sees and can edit in this card.

On the **Advanced** tab, the banner at the top indicates that the properties of this card are locked. A lock icon also appears next to the **[DataField](controls/control-card.md)**, **[DisplayName](controls/control-card.md)**, and **[Required](controls/control-card.md)** properties. The right-hand pane created these formulas, and the lock prevents accidental changes to these properties.
Let's modify the **[DisplayName](controls/control-card.md)** to put a space between **Asset** and **ID**. By making this change, we're altering what was generated for us. In the right-hand pane, this card has a different label:
We've now taken control over this card and can modify it further to fit our need. But we've lost the ability to change the card from one representation to another (for example, single-line text to multi-line text) as we did before. We've transformed the predefined card into a "custom card" that we now control.

You can change the appearance and behavior of an unlocked card in a variety of ways, such as adding and deleting controls within it. For example, you can add a star shape from the **Icons** menu on the **Insert** tab.
In the formula bar, set the **Image** property of this control to *TextBox*.**Text**, where *TextBox* is the name of the **Text input** control that holds the URL:
And now we can see the images and edit their URLs. Note that we could have used **Parent.Default** as the **Image** property, but it wouldn't have updated if the user changed the URL.

We can do the same thing on the second screen of this app, where we use a **Display form** control to display the details of a record. In this case, we may want to hide the label (set the **Visible** property of the label, not the card, to **false**) because the user won't edit the URL on that screen:

To populate these controls with data, their properties can be driven from the properties of the card, through these key formulas. Note that none of these formulas refers to a specific field. Instead, all information comes from the card.
