Saving Form Runtime Changes

On the Process Defaults form, set the Default Value value to 1 for the Allow saving form  runtime changes option. If set to 1 (default), users can save minor changes, such as these, to a form made during normal operations:
  • Changing the form size
  • Moving the splitter bar
  • Hiding either the grid view or the detail view
  • Changing the visibility of grid columns
  • Changing the sequence of columns in a grid display

If set to 0 (zero), this process default prevents such changes from being saved.

Note:  This is different from the ability of a user with editing permissions of Basic or higher to save a user version of their form. This setting allows all users to save minor run-time changes and does not require users to have Design Mode permissions. These changes in this manner do not require you to run the FormSync utility to keep them when you upgrade.
