ShowCaption inside a repeater is harmless

Description

Fields inside a repeater() control are labeled by their column headers, not by their own captions. ShowCaption = false on a field inside a repeater is harmless and should not be flagged.

This is the explicit behaviour of the Business Central client: a repeater renders as a tabular list whose column headings come from each field's Caption (or source-table caption), and individual row cells do not announce a per-cell caption.

Best Practice

Inside a repeater, you may set ShowCaption = false on fields without losing accessibility. The column header still provides the label for every cell in that column. Outside a repeater, the rules in show-caption-on-editable-fields.md apply.

See sample: show-caption-in-repeater-allowed.good.al.
