Format Rule Bug in Desktop View

[jyothis_m]

I have applied Format Rule to a Column with the following condition

NOT(IN(CONTEXT(“ViewType”),{“Form”,“Detail”}))

as I do not want to show the formatting in Detail/Form. The Format Rule works fine in Mobile View but in Desktop View there seems to be a bug.

When I original view to which the rule is applied is shown initially, the formatting is also ok. But as soon as I click any item on it and the detail view opens in the side, the Formatting disappears from the original view and I guess its due to the Detail view getting opened on the right side of this view.

Hi @jyothis_m ,

What you are observing is indeed an old lingering issue. It was discussed in detail in teh post thread below.

Bug in formatting rules in desktop view

As the video shows, a strange phenomenon occurs when the following expression is written in “If this condition is true” in the formatting rule. CONTEXT("ViewType")="Deck" [マイビデオ1.gif] While only the Deck view is displayed, the formatting rule is valid, but when the Detail view is displayed, the formatting rule seems to be disabled. In the Desktop View, I expect the formatting rules to continue to be in effect in the Deck view after the Detail view is displayed.
