You can bind events to the select element and have them toggle the visibility of other form elements.

Try this:

$(function() {

    //The form
    var form = new Backbone.Form({
        schema: {
            inputType: { type: 'Select', options: ['line', 'area'] },
            line: 'Text',
            area: 'TextArea'
        }
    }).render();

    form.fields['area'].$el.hide();

    form.on('inputType:change', function(form, editor) {         
        form.fields['line'].$el.toggle();
        form.fields['area'].$el.toggle();
    });

    //Add it to the page
    $('body').append(form.el);
});

There is no default implementation.In fact, completely on your own is also very simple, please reference the following code：

//Pseudo code 
var line = $("element_1"),area = $("element_2");
if(selectvalue ==="1"){
  line.show();
  area.hide();
}
else{
  line.hide();
  area.show();
}
