Sharepoint 2013 introduced the JSLink. This is very useful to play with forms and views.
My attempt here is to remove some rows from the DispForm. To do so I needed to trigger an action as soon as the fields rendering has been done. After different tries, I finally came up with the PostRender option.

function loadExt(e,t){var s=this;s.files=e,s.js=[],s.head=document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0],s.after=t||function(){},s.loadStyle=function(e){var t=document.createElement("link");t.rel="stylesheet",t.type="text/css",t.href=e,s.head.appendChild(t)},s.loadScript=function(e){var t=document.createElement("script");t.type="text/javascript",t.src=s.js[e];var a=function(){++e<s.js.length?s.loadScript(e):s.after()};t.onload=function(){a()},s.head.appendChild(t)};for(var a=0;a<s.files.length;a++)/\.js$|\.js\?/.test(s.files[a])&&s.js.push(s.files[a]),/\.css$|\.css\?/.test(s.files[a])&&s.loadStyle(s.files[a]);s.js.length>0?s.loadScript(0):s.after()}
// verify when all scripts have been loaded
var loadExtLoaded = false;
function checkExt(ctx) {
if (loadExtLoaded) {
// here you can call a function that is in one of the called script
} else {
setTimeout(function() { checkExt(ctx) }, 50);
}
}
loadExt([
'file_you_want_to_load.js',
'style_you_want_to_load.css',
'no_cache_file.js?timestamp='+(Date.now())
], function() {
loadExtLoaded=true;
});
(function() {
function onLoad(ctx) {
checkExt(ctx);
}
// do some actions as soon as the fields are shown
var loadAfterForm = {
Templates: {
OnPostRender:function(ctx) {
// only trigger when everything is loaded
// --> ctx.ListData.Items[0] all the fields
if (ctx.ListSchema.Field[0].Name === "Attachments") {
onLoad(ctx)
}
}
}
}
SPClientTemplates.TemplateManager.RegisterTemplateOverrides(loadAfterForm);
})();
