Hi,

I am searching for a way show/hide the "new" command buttons based on the form/formId. I know it is possible with the ribbon workbench, but I want to try it with the command buttons. Does anyone have any experience, or does anyone know how to do it?

I was trying to do it with a fx formula, but that didn't work out, or I didn't find the right formula.

At the moment, Power Fx formulas in the modern Command Designer cannot access the current Form ID, so you cannot directly show/hide command buttons

based on the form being used.

For form-specific button visibility, the recommended approach remains:

Ribbon Workbench + JavaScript Custom Rule

using:

primaryControl.ui.formSelector.getCurrentItem().getId()

to determine the current form and return true or false for the button visibility.

This isn’t supported with modern command buttons. You can’t access formId or form name in Power Fx visibility rules. Only basic context (record fields, form state like New/Edit) is available, If you need form-specific visibility, you still have to use Ribbon Workbench, this is exactly why Microsoft has not deprecated the classic ribbon yet, modern commanding still has functional gaps like this.

If this helped, please mark this answer as verified so it can help others facing the same limitation.
