Introduction

The Details config section within each module in ManagementStudio lets the administrator set the properties and structure of the elements presented within the details tab. The Applications module is used here to illustrate the concept of details config, although the principles also apply to all modules within ManagementStudio.  

Switch to Administration ->Applications -> Details Config

Overview

1) MP: This column shows the fields that are shared to across projects. The check boxes ticked are the fields shared.

2) Internal Name: This is the Internal Name of the field which can not be edited and is generally the name used in the API.

3) Display Name: This is the Name of the field as displayed in the Details Page UI.

4) Display Order: This controls the order in which the fields are displayed in the UI the lower values appear first.

5) Width: The Details Page is comprised of 12 Columns, this value indicates how many of these Columns the fields UI element will occupy.

6) Visible: As the name suggests this controls whether a field is visible on the Details Page.

When you mark a field as invisible, it will join the other invisible fields at the bottom of the fields list.

7) Read Only: When a field is marked as Read-Only it can not be edited by a user via the UI.

8) On New Line: This will cause the field to start on a new row in the Details Page. Normally controls based on their size will endeavour to fill a row once a row is filled the controls move on to the next row. This option allows you to specify you want this control to appear at the start of a new row.

9) Format String: Where applicable this allows you to control the formatting of dates, times and numbers. It uses the same formatting specifications as the System.String Format Function.  For example {0:dd-[MM]-yyyy} produces with the value of  11th of February 2020 the following output "11-[02]-2020"

10) List of Custom fields to show in the custom field panel: This are the list of custom fields to be shown within the custom field panel. Please refer to this article on how to configure this.
