Objects not hiding on webdirect

[Morenomdz]

Hello there, I've set few text boxes per layout that work as "tutorials", with one button called "help" that changes one global field [tutorial] from Yes to No (and vice versa), commits the record.

 

When the global field "tutorial" is set to yes, all the "text boxes" should hide, when it is set to no they should apear. It works perfectly in the fm client but when I got to the web even if I change the field to Yes or No in the client and save the record, the web still shows all the text boxes.

It looks like the the "hide when" is simple not working. Using 

table::tutorial = "yes"

Did a test having the a tex field for the tutorial showing on the layout, it looks like the webdirect is not seeing the field content at all. It shows as empty on web and Yes or No on the client.

You may have to refresh the screen to see the changes and cause the hide cAlc to refire

The problem is that the web is not showing the data from the "Tutorial" field, on client it shows yes or no, in the web direct is simple stays empty:

 

this is the client

 

at same time this is the web.

Ghosts!

No idea what is causing that!

Either I figure out why webdirect is not hiding or I will have to duplicate everylayout and set the tutorial baloons there. : /

Yes global fields are per user but why the webdirect access won't change the field data even having permission to do so is the problem.

I actualy got it working by replacing the field, with a value list field, so far it is working great, if it happens to halt again I will post it. Thanks for the help!
