hideParent not effective?

[jezmck]

I have a Form with TextFields which I wish to hide, but the fieldLabel remains visible.

frmEnquiryEdit = new Ext.form.FormPanel({
	id: 'frmEnquiryEdit',
	...
	items: [
		{ xtype: 'datefield', id: 'edit_instruction_date', format: 'd/m/Y', fieldLabel: 'Instruction Date', name: 'instruction_date', hideParent: true },
		...			
	]
	
});

and

Ext.getCmp('edit_instruction_date').hide()

any ideas anyone?

try this

frmEnquiryEdit.getEl().up('.x-form-item').setDisplayed(false);

it works.
