how to hide or de-activate fields inside work item template based on selecting some particular value in another field

Hi all,

I have a question regarding RTC. In the work item template how can we hide or de-activate few fields based on some other field selection. for example based on the work item type selection "Task/Story/Epic/..." I want to hide or de-activate some other field.

Are you talking about the work item template (with prefilled values) or the work item editor (the form you get when creating a new work item)?

Sorry, you are right. I meant Work Item Editor.

Agreed, i was not able to write that up, but a "work item template" is not what is relevant here. I think it is the work item editors, which are designed and assigned for the work item types.

yes you are right. I meant work item editor. Meanwhile I found the documentation about  Server side Plugin RTC (Web UI Extensions), which I can use to write own extensions and modify the UI behavior like hide fields, add new fields in WI editor.

You should not take extending RTC lightly, especially the UI. That can be very complicated and expensive. A lot of the documents you mention are old. Use the built in capabilities such as read only by condition or read only by type and state.

Many Thanks Ralph for your Answer. Could you please give some hint/more info about the built in capabilities such as read only by condition or by type and state. where I can find more information about it.
