What is the purpose of Red lock icon on fields

(0) ShareShare

Hi,

I see Red Lock icon on some of the fields, even though locking section is unchecked.

Also how can we remove or set on any fields without checking on the Locking section in the Details tab.

Thanks,

    Hi,

    Locking a field means that we are preventing it from getting deleted from the form.

    It is applied when we think that a particular field is mandatory to be displayed on the form and we don't want it to be removed by customization.


    Do you mean that you'd like to remove or modify the fields in a locked section?

    If yes, it cannot be achieved unfortunately.

    It is recommended to unlock it first.
