Collection Validation (Forms 11 Update 4)

Forms Forms Layout Designer Version 11

Updated September 21, 2023

asked on August 17, 2023

In Forms 11 Update 4, when you click "Add" on either a table or collection, all the required fields are validated (highlighted red and displaying error message).

Is there any magic to stop this from happening?

In the screenshot, I filled in the four required fields, then clicked the Add button.

We definitely want the validation to run on submission, but it feels like overkill when just adding a row. I'm expecting complaints.

One more issue that I see happening when a new row is added, is if a lookup is used to fill some of the values but allows the user to edit the filled values. If they edit those values, then add a new row the lookup runs again and overwrites the changes made by the user.

EDIT: it was not a look up that is filling the field that gets written back over, but a function that pulls from the hidden field that depending on a check box was either filled by the look up value or a default null value.
