In BoldSign, this feature is currently available for Checkbox, Radio Button, and Dropdown form fields. By applying conditional logic, you can control the visibility of certain fields, making them appear only when a specific field option is selected. For instance, when a checkbox is checked, a certain form field may be displayed, and when it is unchecked, a different form field may be displayed to the signer.
