A File field allows you to browse through existing files and upload new files. You can use the operating system's file selection interface or simply drag and drop files to the File field to upload them.

Once a file has been selected in the field, that file can be replaced by clicking the <img style="margin-bottom: 0px; vertical-align: middle; display:inline-block;" src="../../_images/icon_edit.png" alt="edit icon"> icon. The field selection can be cleared by clicking <img style="margin-bottom: 0px; vertical-align: middle; display:inline-block;" src="../../_images/icon_remove.png" alt="remove icon"> icon (this will not remove the file from the system). You can also change the file metadata (such as the title or description) by clicking the <img style="margin-bottom: 0px; vertical-align: middle; display:inline-block;" src="../../_images/icon_edit_meta.png" alt="settings icon"> icon - please note that file's metadata will be changed globally throughout the system.
