Gain more flexibility by basing a section’s visibility on a field’s value—even if it’s hidden. With the new Enable hidden fields in conditions setting, you decide whether conditions referencing hidden fields are automatically false or determined by their actual value.
Key Highlights
- Flexible Visibility Logic: Turn on “Enable hidden fields in conditions” to evaluate fields—even if they’re hidden.
- Default Off: By default, hidden fields count as false in visibility conditions, preserving current layouts.
- Section-Level Control: Choose on a per-section basis to ensure the right combination of hidden fields and display logic.
- Clean Layouts, Powerful Rules: Keep fields hidden for a clutter-free page while still using their values to drive display logic.
How It Works
- Enable the Setting: In the “Sections Visibility” tab, toggle Enable hidden fields in conditions to ON.
- Combine Logic: When enabled, a field’s value is used in visibility rules, even if that field is hidden.
- Configure Per Need: Turn it off if you prefer the original behavior where hidden fields are considered false.
Leverage hidden field data to craft dynamic, condition-driven layouts that remain sleek and user-friendly, granting you more control over how information is displayed and ensuring your pages stay uncluttered, streamlined, and ready for efficient user interactions.
