Hi,

Check the output and let me know what is it showing.

function onLoad() {
  var display = g_scratchpad.display;
  alert(display);
  if (display == 1) {
    alert("if1");
    g_form.setDisplay('cab_required', true);
    var field = g_form.getValue('cab_required');
    alert(field);
    if (field == true) { //is the syntax is proper
       
      g_form.setValue('u_type', 'u_normal', 'Normal');
    }
  } else {
    alert("else");
    g_form.setMandatory('cab_required', false);
    g_form.setVisible('cab_required', false);
  }
}

Hello,

One more thing i want to add. Use g_form.setDisplay() method because setDisplay() will reclaim the space if the field is hidden.

g_form.setDisplay('cab_required', true);

Please mark correct/helpful answer if it help you in any way.

Thanks,
