I contacted Richard requesting the enhancement that a field could be hidden when there where no options supplied for that field. Suppose FieldA has several options, one being OptionA1. When OptionA1 is selected, suppose there are no options supplied for FieldB. In that case, FieldB should be hidden. However, when OptionA2 is selected, FieldB is populated with a number of possible values. Another example follows in my email below.

Hello,
I was just looking at the plug-in that you recently uploaded. This looks
like a nice addition to the Trac functionality.
Quick question: does it have the ability to hide a ticket field when there
are no options specified for that field? Or would it be easy to extend to
have this feature?
It can't do that currently. It's not very hard to add this feature, I
will make it soon.
For instance, suppose I had the following example:
{
"domain": {
"software": {
"component": {
"acquisition layer": {},
"processing layer": {},
"driver layer": {}
}
}
"hardware": {
"component": { }
}
}
I'd want the "component" field to be hidden if "hardware" was selected from
the "domain" field.
I've been thinking about working on something like that, but if your plug-in
could do the trick as is or with a little bit of modification, that would be
excellent!
Thanks,
- Ryan
