Does anyone know of a method to get a custom field's Label via the id/scriptid?

context.form.getField().label https://system.na0.netsuite.com/app/help/helpcenter.nl?fid=section_4335154548.html

That's one way, aye, thanks. That's not quite what I'm looking for, but it might be a workaround

What do you mean by workaround? It's pretty typical to get the field to get things about it besides its value

My UI loads information about searches. Those searches may include custom fields and the column(s) don't include the label of the field, only the scriptid. I was hoping to search something to get the field label, but I can work around it using a suitelet

how do you call your searches ? are you using search.load ?

Yes, but I wasn't explaining it correctly. One can't get the field label from a filter. I've decided to look in the

columns

array for the label and if it's there, use that, otherwise oh well, use the scriptid/fieldid.
