Unsearchable Fields still show up as Columns in Views

Posted on by CRM Learner 88

I marked a field unsearchable as I didn't want it to show up in the Advanced Find.  However the column for this field still shows up.

Is there a way to stop that?

    Yes, its by design, you can't hide the field from selection while creating view

    There is an idea that you can upvote (so far it does not look like it's going to be implemented):

    Yes, I believe it's by design. I don't think you can remove fields from the list of available to pick columns.

    I wish I could.  Unfortunately my company restricts me from doing so.  

    I made a field unsearchable.  It does not show up when filtering in the Advanced Find,  But it does show up as a column.  Is this by design?
