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!

Hello, I have a metrics reporting sheet that relies on cross sheet reference formula to count rows from a formula column in a source sheet (let's call it Sheet A) that refreshes with data via data shuttle (set to 'Replace all target sheet rows with the data from the input file') once per day at 8 AM UTC (I am in PST).

Dear Community, I have created a form where the contact field is mandatory. If no value is selected in this field, the form correctly shows the error message: “This response is required.” However, if I select a name and then remove it, the field shows a remaining circular icon, and the form gets submitted without any…
