I have a field in the header that presents the layout name as a page title. It works great, but when in Find mode it disappears. Is there anyway around this? It does this both with a merge field as well as with an edit box.

The field is an unstored calculation:

Substitute ( Get ( LayoutName ) ; "_" ; " " )

thanks,

Unstored calcs do not work in find mode. Globals and global calcs will though.

OK, so is this as simple as just changing the calculation to a global in storage options?

When I did, the text disappears. What am I missing?

thanks

Are you changing this while it is being served? In your case, since there is nothing to make the global calc update, try using a global field as a trigger.

gTrigger. You can set it as part of your script when it goes to that layout or opening script etc.

Case ( gTrigger; Substitute ( Get ( LayoutName ) ; "_" ; " " ) )

Try using a Merge Field. It will display the contents of a field as text.

this thread is from 2009 and Mr. Vodka provided the correct answer. Unstored calcs (even if placed on a layout as a merge field which the OP did try) do not display in Find mode.
