Has anyone 'customized' an edit form? I want to
hide fields that are not entered by the user
change order of fields on the form.
Hi,
To hide a field, you select it in the form edit window and select Hidden Field.
To rearrange the fields you hover over the field and click and hold on the colored section on the left in the field section and move it to where you want it to be.
Edit: If you are referring to the Edit Row function you can rearrange the fields by changing the order of the columns in the sheet, but unfortunately there isn't a way to hide the fields that are not used.
I hope this helps you!
Have a fantastic week!

This doesn't seem to work - I am referring to the Edit box that opens (not a form that I created).
Thanks!
I second this question. I have yet to find a way to do this. Even locking and hiding the columns in Grid view seems to do nothing when in the Edit form. As I am the sheet owner though I wonder if that's the reason. Is it possible that someone with just Edit capabilities would only see the felds that are not hidden?
Hi @Doug Carr
I hope you're well and safe!
Unfortunately, it's not possible to change what is shown in the Edit Row and what's included, but it's an excellent idea!
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.
Here's a possible workaround or workarounds
Is that an option?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Hi, "Fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required." is the very first line in the body of every form I create. I don't remember seeing it before (unless you missed filling out a required field; then you would see the message). Is there a way to turn it off or change it? None of my forms are in English so the message is…
I have a sheet that I pull into a report. The report I then want to use to make a stacked bar chart and put into a dashboard if I can. The columns I am trying to make into a stacked chart are: Lead, project and phase. The issue is that there are several leads and I need the stacked bar chart to show in different colors for…
I have a dynamic view setup for a dashboard that has NO restrictions And on the Sharing tab, I have a Group that I created as the additional share access to the view But the individuals in the Group still cannot see the data from the dashboard. Am I missing something? Because when I share the view to them individually…
