Field Settings Display

Choose how Drupal's Edit field and Delete field forms open: as the standard modal dialog, as an off-canvas tray, or as a full page. Site default with per-bundle overrides.

Features

Drupal core's Field UI opens the Edit field and Delete field forms in a centered modal dialog. For long field configuration forms, the modal feels cramped and strips away the surrounding manage-fields context. This module gives site builders three choices and lets each bundle pick its own:

• Modal dialog — the existing Drupal default, untouched.
• Off-canvas tray — same dialog renderer Settings Tray and Layout Builder use.
• Full page — opens as a normal page with breadcrumbs and local tasks intact.

Site-wide default is configured at /admin/config/user-interface/field-settings-display. Per-bundle overrides appear on every Field UI-enabled bundle's configuration form.

Post-Installation

After enabling the module:

1. Visit Administration → Configuration → User Interface → Field settings display.
2. Pick a default mode and save. The default of Modal dialog preserves core's current behavior.
3. To override a single bundle, edit that bundle's configuration form (Content type, Vocabulary, Media type, etc.) and pick a mode under Field settings. Site default means no override is recorded.
