What ShowIf expression should I use when I am trying for a field to not show when is being displayed on a specifically named form?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Please explore if the following expression helps to hide the filed in a specific form
CONTEXT(โViewโ)<>โYour Specific Form View Nameโ
Or another expression as follows
NOT(CONTEXT(โViewโ) =โYour Specific Form View Nameโ)

My form name is โOrder_Details_Formโ it only works when I use this (which is the opposite):
CONTEXT(โViewโ)=โYour Specific Form View Nameโ
Just to be clear I want the field NOT to show when in โOrder_Details_Formโ
Thank you.
With the expression
CONTEXT(โViewโ)=โYour Specific Form View Nameโ
, the field will show in that particular view. If you wish the field not to show in a praticular view , then I believe , you need to use an expression
CONTEXT(โViewโ)<> โYour Specific Form View Nameโ
thatโs what is strange if I use <> it does show on that view, but if I use = it doesnโt show
This is the field
This is the form (and the field not showing on the form)
Thank you.
I am sorry.I am unsure why this could be happening. Someone else may have more insights.
You need to turn ON setting to Apply Show If constraints universally.
Good catch @Heru. Sometimes one misses basics
I recollect, in recent another post we had come across the same issue and there also you had suggsted this
I hope this is the sameโฆ will require more detail information if the setting already on.
Only to apply Show_If outside of forms. Show_If always works in forms. This poster is asking about forms.
Your form name appears to be Order Details_Form
(no _
between Order
and Details
๐
Please adjust the expression accordingly.
Steve, Great catch as usual.
