Hey,
Sorry about that, from what I read - you are following the correct flow. Here is what I did:
- Add new drop down field to the Contacts table (Colours).
- Add that field to Edit Contact screen
- I added the Field to my View Contact screen: (in your case you will make it Disabled).
Now go into a Contact and click on 'Edit Contact' and you should have the option to choose from the dropdown. Click on Save will send you back into the View Contact screen that will have that field on screen.
Please test this and follow up with the outcome.
