Form Section

[George_1]

Is it possible to unLink a form section from a view in incident table, without deleting the record from sys_ui_form_section. The section doesn't has a name, can it be done with sysID.

@George_1 

why that section doesn't have name?

if somehow name got deleted or is empty then only option is to use DOM manipulation in onLoad client script

Note: DOM is not recommended and you will have to ensure "Isolate Script" field on your client script = False for DOM to run

hi @George_1  ,

Yes, it's possible without deleting the sys_ui_form_section record.

Go to Configure → Form Layout

Select the appropriate view and remove the section from that view.

You can unlink a form section from a specific view without deleting the sys_ui_section record. Since the section is unnamed, use the section’s sys_id to isolate and remove its mapping.
