 Hi All,
Is there an API Method to show/hide attribute presentations? (or) any property setting? Since we have pre-conditions for hiding or making attributes read-only, i would like to understand how its done.

Thanks.

I don't think any of that mechanism is exposed. Those settings create attributes on the display elements, and the ui processor implements the behavior. (hidden)

all the pre-condition (advisor) does is prevent you from changing it.. the UI still lets u enter data..

you can see the code in the SDK,

As far as I know, Sam is right and this is implemented on the presentation layer. I would suggest to create an enhancement request.
