Hide a Section on Satandard pageLayout based on Picklist Value

Is it possible to hide a section on the standard pagelayout based on the picklist selection, For suppose in the below picture 

If i have selected the region as YES in the picklist then it should show the REGION DETAILS section and if the REGION is selected as NO the the REGION DETAILS SECTION Should be hidden.

Please help.

You can't do this, but it is a good feature for the roadmap of our "Highlighter" AppExchange app.  I'll add it.  :)

You can do this in Lightning. But not in classic.

Why dont you just introuduce a dependant picklist that has all these fields? These fields would be grayed out when the values is NOT yes.

Thanks for the response Pk, But the thing is none of the field are picklist except one. They are text field and even there is a check box. So the dependent picklist option wouldnt work.

Hi Ravitej

Try using different record types
Create two record types say "Region" and "Non region".
You can have different pagelayouts, which can help you with page layouts

This way you would have to select the type before in a picklist.

Hope it helps

HI RD. 

I dont want to achieve this by changing page layout and record type. Any other solution to fix this would be helpful.

Hm, Are you open for visual force and apex, cause using just standard layout it is not possible.
Using VF page would help to rerender the page based on the picklist.

let me know if that works for you

No i cannot implement VF page instead of Standard page. I know that Visual  page and Apex can help me fic the issue but my requirement is that to solve this by using Standard Page layout.

But that is for component based visibility and that wont work for hide and show section.
