“Why Edit Page option is not available in list forms like NewForm.aspx, EditForm.aspx and DispForm.aspx?”
If we need to edit New/Edit/Display Form of list most of the time we are using SharePoint designer.
But here is the one nice trick to achieve this functionality.
Just add “&ToolPaneView=2” at the end of the URL and refresh the page.
So that you’re URL will be like this.
http://sharepointkings/... /Lists/Demo/NewForm.aspx?RootFolder...&Source=…&ToolPaneView=2
http://sharepointkings/... /Lists/Demo/EditForm.aspx?RootFolder...&Source=…&ToolPaneView=2
http://sharepointkings/... /Lists/Demo/DispForm.aspx?RootFolder...&Source=…&ToolPaneView=2
You can see add webpart tool pan beside this web part.
Just add or remove your webpart and your work is done.
cheers
Below contents are Update as on 22/07/08
There is one more parameter with the same name just pass the value 3 with that.
So that you’re URL will be like this.
http://sharepointkings/... /Lists/Demo/NewForm.aspx?RootFolder...&Source=…&ToolPaneView=3
And that will take you to this type of page.
This will allow you to search webpart across all available galleries
Cheers once again...

Nice trick, just what I needed! Thank you!
Thats great info, but also I would like to alter the 'close' button. Is it possible to do that in a similar way?
I've seen how you can use Sharepoint Designer to create a copy of the page and create a new one, but then I'm unsure how to load this onto a production server where there is no access via SPD.
Thanks
Thank you, so very much, exactly what i was frantically searching for
thanks buddy
This isn't working for me on any pages. I've attached the link to the end of my webpage address and it does not launch the Web Part tool. Any suggestions?
Jaclyn,
it should be working... may be URL was wrong, try manually in browser or may be user don't have permission.
Nice Idea..
Just type &toolpaneview=2
immediatly after ? and press Enter.
This is brilliant. Saved me a lot of work. Thanks!
