So the last time I had this happen to me - I undid some of my changes and found that I had used the "on same row as" on a field that I didn't move from one tab to the next.
so I put it back on the last form and the field showed back up
unchecked it and then I could move it.

10/18/2021, 10:11 PMYeah, The worst part is doing it on a custom record with 90ish fields

10/18/2021, 10:12 PMHave you tried unapplying the field from the form and then reapplying it?

10/18/2021, 10:12 PMCAUTION
