Modifying field display properties

Change the display properties for fields as necessary. The system uses five field properties: Required, Protected, Optional, Hidden, and Not Available.

To modify field display properties:

  1. Display the selected page in designer mode.

    See Displaying pages in designer mode.

  2. Right-click the field to modify.
    Note: All five of the field properties are NOT available for all fields.
  3. Choose one of the following field property options:
    • Required—Select to indicate that the field is required.
    • Protected—Select to indicate that the field is read-only.
    • Optional—Select to indicate that the field is not required.
    • Hidden—Select to indicate that the field is not shown in detail mode but is always displayed in list view and is still available.
    • Not Available—Select to indicate that the field should not be displayed in detail or list views.
  4. Click Save.
