How about moving it off the page so it's not visible. Something like this applied to the class (gf_offpage as an example here) you add to the fields you don't want visible:</p> <pre><code>[css] body .gform_wrapper .gf_offpage { position: absolute !important; top: -9999px !important; left: -9999px !important; }</code></pre> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/hide-a-field-that-uses-formula#post-145268 Sat, 09 Feb 2013 17:57:29 +0000 ehong33234 145268@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Yes please!

I tried all in this topic and nothing worked out. I was able to hide the calculation field but then nothing was calculating anymore.</p> <p>Hope someone has a solution.

I did not think a hidden field would work in a calculation.</p> <p>Making it white on white, or a smaller font, or moving it off the page was going to be my next suggestion.</p> <p>Did you have a question about applying it to more fields or were you just showing how you did it?</p> <p>If you are going to hide more information by making the text white on white, I would give those fields a custom CSS class (on the advanced tab of that field in the form builder) and then modify your CSS to target fields with that class. </p>
