Can I hide an any-to-itself transition in one status?

Hi @Phil Bustin 

using JMWE, you can add a Current Status Condition to the transition. You'll then select the source Status from which you want to hide the transition, and check the "Reverse condition" option at the bottom of the screen.

Hi @Phil Bustin

You can use conditions to it, but I believe they are available only via third party apps: https://innovalog.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/JMWE/pages/68878455/Hide+transition

I could try a validator against an empty field or a regular expression validator against some field, in the transition.  Only in that state would the field be empty, or would the regular expression (field) contain the value that prevents the transition from being visible.

Yes, you could do that too if you don't want to use plugins.  But, validators would be after the fact.  So it confuses people (i.e. why is it available and when I click it doesn't work).

Maybe I meant to say Condition.
