How to hide a form field when it's empty?

When displaying an existing record, you can hide an empty field by opening that field’s settings and enabling Hide field if empty. This is useful for read-only fields that would otherwise show No value.

No value means that this particular field is empty; it does not by itself mean the record failed to save. No records found refers to a list or search with no matching records, rather than a single empty field.

This setting hides the field in the form. It does not remove the corresponding column from a portal grid. For a new-record form or more specific visibility rules, use conditional fields:

You can use the Conditional Field section and set the condition based on the field itself.

This feature makes the most sense when users are editing records (not creating new ones)
