Show optional fields in Properties activated by default

We always have to activate "Show optional fields" in the object Properties view. We would like this to be activated by default.

  Screenshot of a Properties panel with a toggle button labeled 'Show optional fields' highlighted, indicating the feature is turned on.

  • Hello Andriy,

    We run our CCMS with several user groups creating different document types.

    I'd like to answer your questions as well:

    • Should it be a system-wide setting or a per-user setting?
      • We'd prefer a per-user setting, because of the different user groups we have
    • What default would you expect, I assume "Show Optional fields" = true
      • That would be our preference
    • How often from your experience might people change this setting or will it be set once and forever?
      • If it's turned on as a standard, some users will turn it off. Same today: Many users turn it on for each session.
        That's why we prefer a per-user setting

    Kindly,

    Hella Tischer
