How do I get a hidden column to show in a library?

I am having an odd behavior on one of my site columns, and am hoping someone might be able to shed some light on this for me. I have just built a content type hub. Also created some site columns....I have one particular column (which is a choice type), that
is hidden at the parent content type level. I see this hidden column each time i view the settings of any content type that inherits from the parent content type. However, when I add these child content types to a library, I no longer see the hidden column.
I don't understand why this is the case. 
Can anyone shed some light on this for me? Is this the way it is designed to work in SharePoint?
Update: When I view the inheriting content type from the hub, I see the hidden column. But if I view the same content type from within my site, I do not see the hidden column. Is this a publishing issue? Or is this by design in SharePoint?

That definitely does not sound like design.  Have you tried editing the content type on the library level NOT the hub level?  You should be able to set the hidden status to display within the Content Type section on the library.
If that doesn't work, it'll be worth looking at something like SharePoint Manager to open up the column and inspect its properties.

  • How do I get my uploaded material to show up in library after transferring itunes to another drive?

    I've recently had to transfer my itunes over to drive D in my laptop, since drive C was just about at its limit. Anyway, I transferred my itunes over to drive D, but all that shows up in my library is the material I purchased frrom itunes - none of my uploaded cd's are showing up at all. The uploaded material shows up in my itunes file folder, and but it won't show up in my library until I play the song through the file folder. I'd rather not sit there playing all of this material just to get it to show in my library (since there is a LOT), so is there any quickie way I can get this stuff to show up in my itunes library again?

    Have you tired to adding the music to the iTunes library by choosing:
    File>Add Folder to Library

  • How can I get a hidden back

    How can i get a hidden app back on my home screen of my iPhone
    It was purchased and then deleted by accident

    "Hidden" and "Deleted" are two different things. If you hid it, unhide it. If you deleted it on your phone, resych it from iTunes or download it again, for free.

  • How do I get and set column attributes in a table or a treetable with Java?

    Using 11.1.1.4.0
    Hi,
    How do I get and set column attributes in a table or a treetable with Java? For a simple example, say I have a table and want certain roles to see all columns (including address), and other roles can see only certain columns (no address). In a Java method, I want to test if a table's column visible attribute is true and if so, set it to false before rendering it.
    Thanks in advance,
    Troy

    Hi,
    this use case would be a perfect example for using seeded MDS customization. Instead of checking what users are allowed to see or not upon rendering time, you have a customization class and thus the framework doing this for you.
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/31-mds-sample-169173.pdf
    In this paper and sample, specific users see different layouts. It also contains a customization class that shows how this can leverage ADF Security

  • (JTable) How can i get the first columns cell in a selected row?

    Hello. I am trying to figure out how i can get the first columns cell within a selected row no matter what cell is selected in that row. I have a class that extends AbstractTableModel which represents the table. Now i have another class that extends DefaultSelectionModel. Each model is added to the JTable via setModel(TableModel dataModel), setSelectionModel(ListSelectionModel newModel). Now i don't understand what i have to return from getMaxSelectionIndex(). Any ides? Thanks.
      class xTableModel extends AbstractTableModel{
         private static String[] cols;
         private Object[][] data;
            public void setTableModel(Object data[][], String[] cols){
             this.cols = cols;
             this.data = data;
            public String getColumnName(int col){
             return cols[col];
            public int getRowCount() {
             return data.length;
            public Object getValueAt(int row, int col) {
             return data[row][col];           
            public void setValueAt(Object value,int row,int col){
             data[row][col]=value;
            public int getColumnCount(){
             return cols.length;
    class ColumnListenerModel extends DefaultListSelectionModel{
         public int getMaxSelectionIndex(){}

    int row = table.getSelectedRow();
    Object data = table.getValueAt(row, 0);

  • How can i get Cummulative Sales column in Bex

    hi Gurus
    I have a report that shows the months in one column sales for that month in another column and than the users want to see the cummulative sale in the third column which i can figure out how to develop.
    They Cummulative column should show the total for each month from the beginning of the year like year to date.
    so in the example below Cummulative for Jan should be 0. but for Feb it should be sum of Jan and Feb Sales ie. 100300 = 400. Similarly for MArch it should be 100300+150 = 550.
    How can i achieve this?
    thanks
    Month      Sales     CummulativeSales
    jan     100    0
    feb     300    400
    march 150    550
    april     50    600

    Hi,
    -In Query Designer, Create a Formula on that Key Fig.
    -NODIM(<Key Fig Name>)
    -In Property of that Formula, On Calculation Tab, Check that Cumulative CheckBox and
    -Select Calculation Direction as Calculate Along the Row.
    this will give you the Cumulated value of of that Key Fig.
    Best Regards

  • I just noticed that some of the movies I had in iTunes did not get transferred to the iPhone. The missing movies are shown as generic movie icons in the iTunes panel. How do I get the original movies to show up again and transfer to the iPhone?

    I just noticed that some of the movies I had in iTunes did not get transferred to the iPhone 5. The missing movies are shown as generic movie icons in the iTunes panel and are checked to select them. But they do not show up in iPhone Videos. How do I get the original movies to show up again and transfer to the iPhone? I recently upgraded Mac OS to 10.6.8

    1. iTunes won't offer cloud downloads for songs that it "thinks" are in your library, even if it "knows" the files are missing. If you've exhaustively searched for the missing files and there is no prospect of repair by restoring to them to their original locations, or connecting to new ones, then delete that tracks that display both the missing exclamation mark and are of media kind Purchased/Protected AAC audio file. Don't hide from iTunes in the cloud when asked, close iTunes, then reopen. You can download from the cloud links or iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer > All songs > Download all.
    2. Why? Not sure, perhaps 3rd party tools or accidental key presses combined with previously hidden warning messages when trying to organize the library. There is a hint that using the feature to downsample media as it is synced to a device may also be involved, though I've not replicated it. Whatever the reason a backup would protect your media.

  • How do I get a different URL to show up after an email form has been submitted?

    I have created a Form in DW CS5 and have some PHP server side code to mail it out.
    However, once the Submit button is pressed it refreshes back to the Form - How do I get a different page to show up after the Form is submitted? 
    I tried using a behavior - onSubmit - go to URL  -  that gets me to the page I want to go to but I guess it overrides the PHP Form Action because the email will not send.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Thank you for the response.
    In my form - I have tried inserting a hidden field with the Value set to the redirected page I want to go to
         <input type="hidden" name="MM_insert" value="http://www.website.com/page" />
    In my form Action PHP Include - I have inserted a header function with the redirected page I want to go to
         mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers);
         header('http://www.website.com/page');
    I have also checked for empty/extra spaces at the start and end of my php tags
    None of the above has got me to the redirected page I want to go to after the submit button is selected - the Form page continues to refresh.
    Any other suggestions on where I am missing the point would be greatly appreciated - thanks.

  • How can I get my RSS feeds to show up on my iOS devices from iCloud?

    How can I get my RSS feeds to show up on my iOS devices from iCloud?  The RSS feeds now show up just fine on my iMac. 
    On my iMac the appear in a category at the same level as In Box, Sent, etc.  However the term RSS is in lighter grey like Mailboxes, On My Mac, Reminders.  I use Snow Leopard 10.7.5.  Any help will be appreciated as I'd like to read the feeds on my iPad 2 and iPhone 5 when I'm away from home.
    Thank you.

    This is helpful, but how do you get both devices to communicate to this single calendar via the iCloud?...
    You did not mention that it must be through iCloud.  But then, it can't really do so if you want to maintain separate Apple IDs.
    So you just set up an additional calendar on your devices.
    iPads, iPhone, Macs can show multiple calendars simultaneously.  I have my work calendar and several personal calendars all showing simultaneously on my iPad, Mac Mini and Macbook Pro.   In the case of my client, they didn't need multiple calendars.  They just were going to use the one shared calendar.  But I did setup the shared Google calendar and separate personal caldendars on their iPhones.  (e.g.: Husband's iPhone = husband's personal Mac Cal + shared Google Calendar.  Wife's iPhone = wife's personal Outlook for Windows Cal + shared Google Calendar.)

  • How do I get a PDF form to show its content using Mac 10.9.3, Safari 7.0.4 and Reader XI?

    I am using my Mac 10.9.3 with Adobe Reader XI in my Safari 7.0.4 Browser.  I do not have any trouble viewing PDF statements with my bank or other places OTHER than at Ford Credit.  Each time I log into Ford Credit to view the statements and attempt to download them, all I get on the screen is their blank form with headings and titles---no content.  When this happened once before over a year ago with my old Mac computer, I found my answer online by making Adobe Reader my default reader instead of Preview.  At that time it worked.  This time, its not working.  I contacted Ford Credit and they said their online Account Manager performs better using Internet Explorer.  The only answer they had for me was that advice or to contact Adobe.  So here I am looking for answers.  Any help provided is already appreciated.

    I do not know what to do or what to say or what to type to get someone familiar with the Adobe Reader to respond to my plea for help.  I am a 55 year old (aging fast) woman who is taking care of a father-in-law with dementia and a mother-in-law with Stage 4 Breast Cancer so I am already at my wits end when trying to get a program to work on my computer.
    Again, I ask.  How do I get the Adobe Reader to show content on a PDF statement at Ford Credit when all other PDF statements on other accounts work fine?  Ford Credit says it is a problem with Adobe Reader and that I am to come here for the answers.  I have 'googled' and have looked for similar posts on the Adobe Reader Community forums but I haven't found the answer yet.  
    Posting "[moved to the Adobe Reader (desktop) forum]", which I have yet to find, probably doesn't exist, or posting "Duplicate of https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1491128" does not provide an answer when an answer could have been provided at the same time taken to post those notations.  I don't get it or understand it---not what I would have done if the roles were reversed.
    If you have any heart, or any form of courtesy, please respond with an actual, workable answer to what is probably a simple solution to my problem.  And, then maybe, the answer will help someone else in the future who may be struggling with the same situation and will find it in a 'google' search and won't waste any more of your valuable time.  Or theirs.
    Thanks.

    How do I get the Airplay Icon to show on the System Preferences of my MacBook Pro? I want to be able to connect to my AppleTV.

    I looked at that already. I've done everything it says: check to make sure wireless is working, make sure airplay is enabled, make sure device and apple tv are on the same network blah blah. The icon just isn't there. Unless I skipped a step. AirPlay works when I use it in the music app and in the video app, I jus can't get mirroring to work. I was looking at some other threads and mirroring doesn't seem to be working for a lot of people. Maybe I jus have to wait for an update =\

    - Move the Music app icon to the home page.  It is usually easer to do it on the computer than on the iPod itself. The manual says how to move the apps.
