Considerations
Keep these considerations in mind when using the Dynamic Highlights Panel.
- If the Primary Field is hidden for a user due to field-level security settings, the object’s Name field is set as the Primary Field value for that user at runtime.
- When you disable Dynamic Forms and Dynamic Highlights Panel on
Mobile, the Dynamic Highlights Panel component is removed from record pages when
they’re viewed on mobile. To make sure that mobile users can still see record highlights, add a
regular Highlights Panel component to any page that contains a Dynamic Highlights Panel. Then
create a visibility rule for the Highlights Panel that sets it to appear only on mobile
devices. Desktop users then see the Dynamic Highlights Panel, and mobile users see the
Highlights Panel.
If you no longer want to use the Dynamic Highlights Panel component, remove it from your record pages, and add a regular Highlights Panel component instead.
- Fields in the Dynamic Highlights Panel are read only. Inline edit isn’t supported for Dynamic Highlights Panel fields, nor are they included in the available fields when you edit a record.
- Dynamic Highlights Panel fields are fixed width and don’t dynamically adjust based on the field values.
- When adding new custom fields to Dynamic Forms-enabled Lightning pages as part of field creation, those fields are added as the last field in the first column on the first field section on the page in top-down, left-to-right order. If the first field section on a page is the Dynamic Highlights Panel, then new fields are added to the second field section instead.
- When you enable Dynamic Actions on Mobile, some visibility rules may not work on standard objects as expected. Enable the Dynamic Forms and Dynamic Highlights Panel on Mobile setting at the same time. Enabling both settings ensures record pages on mobile use the latest LWC-based Lightning page technology, which provides improved support for visibility rules.
Limitations
Keep these limitations in mind when using the Dynamic Highlights Panel.
- Blank spaces aren’t supported.
- The Dynamic Highlights Panel doesn’t support the merging of multiple address or phone fields. It also doesn’t support a dropdown-menu version of those fields.
- On pages that use the Dynamic Highlights Panel, the panel scrolls with the page. The panel's primary field and actions don't stick at the top when you scroll.
- Visibility rules aren’t supported for the Primary Field, but you can use them to show and hide the other fields in the panel.
- You can’t select a cross-object field as the Primary Field for the Dynamic Highlights Panel in the Lightning App Builder.
- After a record is modified by a record-triggered flow, changes to action buttons in the Dynamic Highlights Panel aren’t always reflected immediately. In this scenario, refresh the page to see the updated action buttons.
