Struggling to get Display Field Only If to work with null values
I have a gross margin calculation comparing my business' price to a competitors. When a competitor doesn't offer a product, the result for the calculation is -Infinity. That's fine - that's Ninox interpreting the garbage in quite well. However, I'd rather not display -Infinity, and just display nothing. I've multiple attempts with Display field only, if. My current incantation is:
'Competitor Price' != null
I've also created a column called test that runs the same calculation, and you can see in the column result values of "No" and "Yes" so I know it's seeing the Null value correctly. I've also tried Display Field Only, if based on that column as well and regardless, it displays the -Infinity value.
I must be missing a subtlety - can you help?

Strange... I tested it and it worked (at least on the iPad version).
Another approach would be to insert the test in the formula itself:
if 'Competitor Price' = null then
null
else
>>>> insert your formula here
endAn advantage is that it is not necessary to make the field disappear entirely, with the possible impact on the general layout.
