Completely hide field if empty

[Alexey]

It might sound weird, but i need to completely hide field if empty (NULL).

Few fields users fill during a specific status via Transition: screen. But sometimes they forget and fill them too early. Even if i set Context fields: Hide when empty, they still find them and try to input data :)

Is there a way to create an automate rule to hide/unhide fields?

There are five states for fields:

1. Disabled (not in a Screen field)
2. Hidden
3. Context fields: Hide when empty
4. Context fields: visible
5. Description fields

I want those fields to be 1 or 2 while empty and 4 then they get data via Transition: screen

@Alexey, I don't believe that there is any way to do what you are looking for. Can I ask, why do your users continue to fill in data if it isn't the right time? 

Thanks,

I understand! Maybe just some friendly shaming :P

Actually, i can Disable (not in a Screen field) field yet collect data to that field via Transition: screen and then populate value to another issue (we have a special sub-task for estimation).

But that's a last resort, for now, i just did a 'Hide when empty' to remove it from sight.

Can you explain where this "Hide when empty" option is please?

IMHO, you should be looking at the screens, you can set different screens in a different state of the ticket. CREATE/VIEW/EDIT.
