Hi Denis! Once you have an entity with a key_name, you cannot change the key_name. That is the reason that the form doesn't use this field when using it to change an entity. If you want to hide it from an editing-form, you can either do so in template logik by passing a variable like "change=True", or you can make another form definition that excludes the field. Do I understand you correctly that the key_name field doesn't appear when you are editing an entity? Well, than thats probably on purpose.
