Add the option to hide the Form & "Details" tab?

Question

I was wondering if there is a way to hide "Details" Tab?
There are occasions when I don't need the details

Interesting request.  Could you give me some details describing the scenario were you don't need and want the details?

I have built a query which consist of multiple tables to get desired view. Then based on that query, I have created a new table:

The top part is the information I need to display to the user. All of this could be edited from their respective tables. I would rather have Details tab to be hidden in this case to allow more items to display on the page.

I extended your feature request because now with Grid Editing, there is a further reason to do away with the form and "details" tab.

Thanks for this request. I have not considered this before but I can see the value.

Now that dbFront supports in-grid editing, there is more reason to remove the Form and Details tab. That said, there are still the regular CRUD buttons + custom Action buttons + Report buttons, etc...

NOTE: Please vote on this Feature Request if it interests you.

Has this feature been added? Expense Reporter Todo List on the demo site appears to have the form hidden. Edit: https://dbfront.com/expensereporter : "A combination of dbFront layout and CSS is used to format the Todo List and hide the form." I guess that means it's not officially added yet?

Good catch!  I accomplished that using CSS and by hiding the form fields but I am working on a better solution at the moment.   You can easily see how it is done by examining the demo site.

Understood, thanks!
