Can I use hidden fields in non editable data pages?

[biota]

So my DP receives parameters for report_ID and and another hidden value which is used to filter.

I have another 'Print' version of the DP that has no editing features and I don't want to shows any row edit or grid edit buttons.

But it seems if nothing is editable, I can't setup the fields to receive the parameters.

Is there a way around this?

 One slight solution might be to enable Grid Edit, and then hide the little icon quite easily, but I'd prefer something cleaner if possible.

 

TIA

Hi @biota,

You can enable the Inline Edit option to allow the fields to receive parameters. Then, you can just hide the edit icon.

You can use the code here to hide the Edit option column:
