Hi all,

In a simple form, I’d like a field “B” to appear if the value for field “A” is equal to ‘Other’.

I’ve seen I few posts about a conditionnal visibility parameter but I can’t find the options in my configuration tab. I can only set the widget type to hidden.

NB : QGIS 4.2.3 / QField 4.3.3

Hi! You need to put the field B inside a sort of container. Then the container will give you the option to control its visibility using an expression. Check [this video tutorial](https://youtu.be/fHg3IlN5lhE?t=163) (starting at minute 2:43 I think is where the part that would interest you the most does begin) to see an example. there the teacher creates a “tab” on the Drag 'n Drop Designer, drags the attribute name inside it, clicks on the tab name and on the right you can see an option `Control Visibility by Expression` (disabled by default).
