Trying to hide UI Action button from GlideModalForm UI Action

Hi,

We have this UI Action for when an Incident is put on hold where a new window pops up for the user to fill in some mandatory fields. I have also created a UI Action button which is appearing in this pop up window but I don't want it to display in there;

I'm not sure where to approach this - should I exclude it from the GlideModalForm UI Action or the button UI Action?

Here's the script that pops the window up when the button is clicked;

function showMyForm(){
    //Get the table name and sys_id of the record
    var tableName = g_form.getTableName();
    var sysID = g_form.getUniqueValue();

    //Create and open the dialog form
    var dialog = new GlideModalForm('Place '+g_form.getValue('number')+' On Hold', tableName); //Provide title and table name
    dialog.setSysID(sysID); //Pass in sys_id to edit existing record, -1 to create new record
	dialog.addParm('sysparm_view', 'on_hold_details'); //Specify a form view
    dialog.addParm('sysparm_form_only', 'true'); //Add or remove related lists
	
	//setOnloadCallback will set the function to be carried out as the form loads
	dialog.setOnloadCallback(function() {
    // The below identifies the modal version of the form that is loaded in the frame	
	var dialogFrame = window.frames["dialog_frame"];
		
		// This applies the On Hold state to the modal version of the form when it is loaded
    dialogFrame.g_form.setValue('state', 3);
    dialogFrame = null;
    });
	
	//setCompletionCallback will set the function to be carried out when the form is successfully submittied
	dialog.setCompletionCallback(function() {
		// Reloads the parent form once the modal form has been submitted and saves any changes that were made prior to clicking On Hold
    g_form.submit();
    });
	
    dialog.render(); //Open the dialog
}

The script for the button is nothing fancy but here that is too;

current.work_notes = "A request has been made for an update on this ticket.";
current.u_chase_count += 1;

current.update();
action.setRedirectURL(current);

Hi,

you can hide that UI action for this view "on_hold_details" using UI action visibility

Also ensure in UI action condition you check whether it's form view or not

Add this as condition in UI action

gs.action.getGlideURI().toString().indexOf('incident.do?sys_id')

Note: I have not tested this part
