Selectively exclude custom columns from single MDE
I thought there was a way to do this, but I can't find it. I looked in the obvious places - Tweaks and Job Spy. If I've missed it can someone give me a screen shot.
I know I can have custom columns in a separate tab, and that there's a tweak for arranging them in one or two columns, but they're not sufficient.
Use case: having multiple instances of the long text editor embedded in the MDE dialogue adds clutter. And it's understandably hard to navigate in-to and out-of them. My preference would be to exclude them and edit those columns from the book list.
Psst: I know I can do it by setting the 'editable' column to 0 in the relevant rows of the 'custom_columns' table of the library database. But that's far too far under the covers for me. And I suspect it wouldn't survive the database cleaner.
