Description

Implements the main UX improvements from the Q2 2026 Bayanat usability report for Form Builder and Advanced Search.

Changes

  • Added admin-only Form Builder shortcuts from Bulletin, Actor, and Incident dialogs.
  • Highlighted newly added dynamic fields.
  • Added guidance for DEFAULT vs CUSTOM fields.
  • Added helper text explaining the Help Text field property.
  • Updated the drag handle icon to a clearer move icon.
  • Fixed Dynamic From Builder typo.
  • Kept hidden but searchable dynamic fields available in Advanced Search.
  • Made the saved search selector stay visible while scrolling Advanced Search.
  • Added active-filter counts to saved search dropdown items.

How To Test

  1. Log in as an Admin.
  2. Open a Bulletin, Actor, or Incident dialog and confirm the Form Builder shortcut appears.
  3. Click the shortcut and confirm the unsaved changes warning appears before navigation.
  4. Add a custom field in Form Builder and confirm it scrolls into view and is highlighted.
  5. Confirm the DEFAULT vs CUSTOM guidance and Help Text explanation are visible.
  6. Open Advanced Search and confirm the saved search selector remains visible while scrolling.
  7. Load a saved search and confirm it shows an active-filter count.
  8. Hide a searchable dynamic field and confirm it remains available in Advanced Search.

Hiding a dynamic field from the form also silently dropped it from
Advanced Search, stranding old data. Now `active` only gates form
visibility; `searchable` alone controls search, so hiding a field
no longer removes it from search unless explicitly marked
non-searchable.
