I am using the system ‘User Settings’ view as a custom login screen, but I cannot completely hide or disable the default ‘Cancel’ button in the Desktop browser view. Creating a custom ‘Cancel’ action with a FALSE condition is ignored by the system, and setting the Localization text to blank ("") just leaves an ugly, clickable empty button border. Is there any known workaround to truly remove or disable this secondary button on desktop?
There is no way to implement a secure custom login mechanism for AppSheet. The only secure login possible is AppSheet’s built-in login support.

For your original question, answer is no.

Hi @Juliet_Onwuegbule
If you insist on using a custom login and want to remove/hide the cancel button from the Localization menu, remember that removing it will also remove the cancel button from all forms (but it will still be clickable). Enter a formula like this:
IF(CONTEXT(“VIEW”)=“Settings”,“”,“CANCEL”)
so that the cancel button is not displayed only in the settings view. The main problem is the unsatisfactory appearance on the desktop.
The best solution is to use the mobile view on the desktop. To do this, go to Settings >> Views >> General >> Desktop Design (disable). This might improve the appearance of your application.
go to Settings >> Views >> General >> Desktop Design (disable)
Desktop Design (disable)

Thank you so much Steve, I wanted to implement the Custom login and i did some research and it’s really not a safe approach I’d stick to “Require User Sign-In”
