Hi All,
We have a requirement wherein we need to add the help text when a user clicks the checkbox type field. But that "show help" option is not visible on the form.
We even tried with deactivating the UI policy which hides the options to add help text but it was also of no use.
Is there any workaround without impacting the functionality.
Regards,
Dhruv Chandan

Hi Dhruv,
Are you referring to the variable on a catalog item or the field on a standard table record? Based on your mention of "Show help", I'm assuming you are talking about a variable on a catalog item.

why don't you use label variable. to show help message rather than changing in Out of the box script.
by the way you can refer the thread below.

Create an client scrip with a g_form.showFieldMsg('filed name','Message','info');
