Region - Display only on form layout page

Question

Hi,
1) I have defined regions on table-form layout style. How ever I want the regions to be displayed only on the Form layout and not on the table layout page that has the search functionality. Is there a way to hide the regions on the search page?
2) Also for display type "textinput" (read-only), eventhough I checked the "Column wrap?" checkbox, the text still spans across the page and not wrapping.
Please help!
Thanks.

Regions enclose items. You can set the Display in Form Layout, Display in Table Layout and Include in Advanced Search properties on the items within the regions, but you are probably asking how to also hide the region title and line for items that are not displayed on the table/search page.
Although there may be a better way to handle this, we've created a custom template for the Regions node under the group. The template is attached to the VERTICAL_REGION_CONTAINER template on that node. The template has code that turns off generation of the region if the region name is a certain string,
We copied the current verticalRegionContainer.vm and added conditional code to the top of it like this:
#if (((($subRegion.title=="Title1") || ($subRegion.title=="Title2")) && (${JHS.current.pageComponent.processingAdvancedSearchArea}))
          || (($subRegion.title=="SearchTitle") && !${JHS.current.pageComponent.processingAdvancedSearchArea}))
       ## do nothing
    #else
## the usual stuff in this template
#endIn this example, the Title1 and Title2 regions are not being displayed on the search form (Advanced search)/table page but are displayed on the Form (Insert/update) page. The SearchTitle region is displayed on the Advanced Search/ table page but not on the Form (insert/update) page. Something like that may work in your case.
If you want some fields to appear on both, but in different regions, copy the items and drop them under the appropriate regions.
