The Dynamic Field Visibility Control feature is used to create sets of fields that are displayed or hidden dependent on the value selected from another custom field.
The feature is similar to the functionality currently offered by the Display Only – Web Page View, but is designed for scenarios where the required logic is more complex than the dynamic control field allows. This includes . . .
- Multiple levels of field branching logic
- Dependent fields that are not displayed directly under the controlling field
The controlling custom fields must be either a Select Many – Check Box or a Select One – Combo Box.
Configuration
The feature uses tree setting to add fields and branches. The actual steps for configuring the Dynamic Field Visibility Control feature are summarised below:
- Create new Dynamic Field Visibility Control
- Define the Primary field
- Define the branching
- Define the branch dependent custom field
Create new Dynamic Field Visibility Control
- Go
