This does not work I want it to show just like an Standard catalog item that you use like "Example text". Is it possible to achieve this on a regular form????

Hello @Community Alums
Steps:
- Navigate to the System Definition > Dictionary section.
- Find the dictionary table that corresponds to your form (e.g., Incident, Problem).
- Locate the field you want to add a hint to.
- Click on the field name to open its details.
- Under the "Labels" tab, find the "Hint" field.
- Enter your desired hint text in the "Hint" field.
- Save the changes.

Hi @Community Alums
You can use Show Field Message function in the On Load client script.

Can you try using BR on display and use set field with what value you want to show to user.
