You do not modify the AST join form you have to modify the CMDB form that is used to create the join form, which for 7.6.04 should be BaseElement. You will not use the Overlay capability since CMDB forms can only be modified by the Class Manager or in the base mode. In 8.1 this field is most likely on the AST:Attributes from which should be able to be modified using the Overlay capability.

Tried this on 7.6.04 sp3 and 8.1 sp2 ... So I suspect BMC must be doing this on purpose... But this SHOULD be a relatively benign customization (I think). I want to add a drop down menu to field 260000004 ('Floor') on AST:ComputerSystem. I have created an overlay on the view/field etc but the 'Menu Name' property remains greyed out. So I thought "ok, I'll just attach it with an active link" ... Well ... When I set up a change field action against that field dev-studio removes the menu option! What am I missing y'all?
