Remove Asterix from Labels in form models

Modeling
1

Hi all

we need to remove the Asterix symbol from our fields in our form models.

Reason is that we have simpler and more complexe validations.
For the simple validations, with the very simple fieldnotfilled conditions the asterix shows correctly.
For the complexe conditions where it depends on workflowsteps and other conditions if and when a field becomes mandatory, the validations works perfectly fine but the asterix behaviour is not correct.

Result is now that for some mandatory fields it shows and for others it does not. We already checked with A12 some time ago and currently it seems there is no way to fix it to make it really completely inline with our validation rules.

To avoid confusion of users, we now want to at least remove the asterix for all cases and just work with the error message. Not ideal but the best we can do currently.

I tried to just overwrite the label, but the asterix is not part of the label. So how can we disable the asterix symbol from showing?

Hi @sarah-fresh-flame,
have you tried the ā€œHide Asteriskā€ setting in the Form Model (under Form Model Settings)? See here.

Please note, the Appendix to the Kernel Language Documentation has an area where it describes when Asterisks can be automatically shown. See here.

Awesome, that is what I was searching for. Just did not know where to look. Works perfectly fine, thx.
