PF3: text-field with "type: hidden" produces vertical offset

The component below should not cause any visual changes in the form, but as you see it on the screenshot above, it does where the blue mark is.

      {
        component: componentTypes.TEXT_FIELD,
        name: 'edit',
        id: 'edit',
        type: 'hidden',
        initialValue: edit,
      },

So since PF3 is just styled wrapper of react-bootstrap I will refer to their docs. The hidden type does not even hide labels, helpers, etc so @rvsia is correct.

@skateman no this won’t be done automatically, just use the hideField. Type is a component-specific property and the renderer has no clue what it is. It could break other mappers which can adjust its styling. There is no side effect of using hideField. It just wraps the element into a div with display: hidden (or none I can’t recall).

Are there any side effects if you put both hideField: true and type: hidden on a component? And can’t this be done automatically?
