Hi,
Is there anyone familiar with the field label:
- Help
- Hint
- URL
On the wiki page, the explanation is only for Hint (that works), the URL sounds adding the ? icon, but I don't know how to use the Help field.

Thanks a lot

You're right on the hint and URL fields. Help doesn't do anything as far as I can tell.

I am wondering about "help" as well:-)
The only think i can think of it is used by screen readers but not sure.

Here is the docs version of that page: Add help to a field label on a form
I needed a place to better describe what a column (hidden from the user) is used for and 'Help' seems to fit the bill.
