Thanks Mohamed. We really appreciate your valuable feedback. We are going to have this feature at the server side for admin to setup. So admin may choose to have defaults =>'invisible purple number' Ideally the fact that someone who has downloaded PMWX will like to see HIDs assigned to data elements within the page so we have kept the default 'purple numbers visible'. This way usage of the software is more intuitive.
