Hint Label Displaying Incorrectly

kailashthiyagar
Kilo Guru

I have a reference field and it has the "Hint" field set on its label.. Based on the value chosen in the dropdown, its value is enabled and made mandatory,,

The Help text on the label behaves differently.. If i hover over the mouse over the "text", it displays the help text correctly but if i hover it over the asterisk, it displays as "Read only field - cannot be modified"

P.S : I m using hint field in the "Configure label" part... i m using the word "Help" and "Hint" interchangeably.. Dont mistake

If it is a bug in the platform that has been fixed in subsequent releases, there's not much you can do short of an upgrade. This seems like a low-priority to upgrade, but something to worth checking after the upgrade is done.



I know it's not the answer you were looking for, but it is an answer by validating it's not you or your configuration settings.

Thanks for the screenshot. I'm still unable to reproduce it. Is your field made mandatory at the dictionary entry, client script, UI policy?

It is made mandatory at the UI policy.. I have another field on the same section which works fine.. i m going to delete it and create it again.. i will update you after that

Its something to do with the UI policy, i believe.. I have reproduced it in my developer instance




ServiceNow



user ID : admin




Table name is : "My Table"



Select the dropdown under the "Macros" section



As per my requirement, i have made the UI policy, if individual value is selected in the dropdown then the "Developer" field is made as "mandatory" and also read only is made as false...



Could you help on this?


Thanks. I have created an admin account for myself. I recommend removing the credentials from your comment so the entire community doesn't do the same.



I'll look at it shortly and comment back.


This smells like a Fuji bug. I did the same thing on my Istanbul instance and it displayed like this:

I have a state choice list with New and Used. If the state is New, I make the User field mandatory=true, read-only=false to mirror what you did.
