Add Placeholder Text to a DITA template in Guides

I recall that it is possible to add a bit of code to a paragraph tag in a DITA template (e.g., Topic) that would display a prompt for the author regarding the text to enter in that tag. When the author clicks within the tag, the prompt text disappears. Does any remember the specifics of that?

@michaelai1 : you can add following element in the template element:

<?tcx-placeholder-text content="placeholder content goes here"?>

I hope this helps.
