Components available on the Get User Input - Advanced panel include above input methods in addition to choice groups, file choosers, and labels.

The Control Alignment selection box on the Get User Input - Advanced > Configure Textfield or Configure File Chooser Field dialog box, in the Control Properties area, allows you to manage the alignment of text fields. By default, the Alignment selection will be Left. There are two possible values for the text alignment controls that is Left and Right.

The Remove Restore Button selection box on the Get User Input - Advanced > Configure File Chooser Field dialog box, in the Control Properties area, allows you to manage the display of the Restore Default button on the File/Folder Chooser component in the Get User Input panel during installation and uninstallation. You can configure the Remove Restore Button selection box based on your requirement. Setting this selection box to Yes removes the Restore Default button, while setting it to No retains it. By default, the selection box is set to No.
