Can I turn off the item label in CAPI or format it?

In my CAPI application (made with CSPro 6.3) for each question two things appear on the tablet screen. First comes the text of the item label as defined in the dictionary, in blue and big font. Then comes the CAPI question text, in black and smaller font.
That doesn't seem very logical to me, because the most import thing here is the CAPI question, not the item label.
So what I would like to know is:
  • Is it possible to show only the CAPI question and not the item label?
  • Is it possible to change font size so that the item label is shown in smaller font than the Capi question?
Thank you for your help and for any suggestion.

IN CSPro 7 you can turn off display of the item label. In the data entry options dialog uncheck the box "Show field labels above question text".

Thanks for your reply, Josh. In CSPro this is not possible?

Yes, it is possible to set this in the data entry options in the latest version of CSPro. That is version 7. In earlier versions, like CSPro 6.3, you would have to delete the labels on the forms.

Sorry, Josh. I meant to ask: "In CSPro 6.3 this is not possible?"
That is clear now from your answer.
