Errors now shown as text below a field

SA-6182

Summary



Field level errors in Dynamic Layouts now appear as below the field with the message text visible, and not as an icon with hover over / tooltip text. 



Error Messages



No Errors


Steps to Reproduce



Apply a property level validation message to a screen (e.g. failed validation).

Root Cause



The change in formatting for field level errors to display the error text under the property impacts fields placed in Dynamic Layouts this is the indented formatting and was a design decision to better support cross platform UX (A primary function of the Dynamic Layout), as there is no hover capability on mobile devices.

Resolution



The reccomended approach is to utalise the new formatting.


The old formatting can still be seen when using the older UI components such as free form and smart layouts.  A possible local change solution would be to place the properties inside a smart / freeform layout, and then use this section inside the dynamic layout.
