Hey guys, I currently have a project page where users will be able to see their projects and all related data. Now the thing is when I want them to edit/update something, I only have 2 options, right? I can either make a detail screen or an edit screen of a project’s page. Both screens can be popul…

[image] Darren_Murphy: you can instead drive the visibility of your components using screen values. Precisley! Using a Choice component can be a good option, though it might rack up your update count if you have 100’s of users navigating like this daily: [CleanShot 2022-11-20 at 14.46.52]

I don’t know how many fields you have, with your ideas do you mean you want to divide the fields into sections? That can work. You can have a choice component and show/hide containers based on that choice component’s chosen value. I’m not sure if you have tried this, but what about a slide-in setu…

In button block you can have primary button action as none which will hide the primary button and then you can use new screens inside the buttons or have the action as set columns and based on the button click the users will see the form I hope that makes sense.

How do you accomplish this? Which value do you edit through the choice component?

Like @Darren_Murphy mentioned above, make a value column and add values to the dropdown list like 1,2,3… or container1, container2, etc. doesn’t matter.
