    Entity Definition Making Field Visible.

    Can you please allow the feature like making the field visible only if the value set for that field?

    Example: Field Type = URL
    Make field visible: Field URL != null.

    This option is not allowed. Can you please add this feature to the URL type fields also?

    Hello,

    just for me understand : how can you make visible a field if you have not possibility to put a value ? maybe is a calculate field ?
    If you could give the project a star on GitHub. EspoCrm believe our work truly deserves more recognition. Thanks.​

      URL is a read-only field. I want it visible only when the value is set.

    I was initially thinking you could just do a "is not empty" conditions, but you are right, URL field type is not possible to choose the condition.

    In the meantime:
    Would this work as a work-around? Create a secondary field call varchar "URL2", create a Formula so that anytime you add a URL it get copy/or field change into the URL2. Now you can use the URL2 is "is not empty" conditions. All theory at the moment, I haven't for a working formula yet but varchar field should work with all conditions.

      When we have a varchar field to store the data, then the URL we need to add the validation also, URL in varchar it don't add hyperlink.

    Another idea: use the text editor field. There you can put an URL and use formula. Did not test it, but may work.

      Look like Yuri just add in the ability to create this condition. It look like he only change one file and it look quite simple enough, I think based on this code you can manually add it for any field you want.
