Customizing Visible Columns |
|
|
Choosing which columns are visible helps reduce or eliminate horizontal scrolling and removes visual clutter so only the desired data is shown.
|
Save the layout with the preferred columns so the Windows App uses that selection as the default. Temporarily hide columns for an ad-hoc report; then when finished, restore the last saved layout. |
Some grids have two header rows, such as the Clubbers and Check-in grids. The top one is a header band. It is a parent container for individual columns below it.
There are two ways to update the visibility of a column:
| 1. | Set the visibility of a Column Header Band associated to a column. Click the  button to the far left of the header bands. In the list, check the box to show a header band. Clear the box to hide it. Example: in the Clubbers Module, the Age and Grade columns are associated with the Member Details header band. Hiding the Member Details header band also hides the associated columns. |
| 2. | Set the visibility of the Column Header (the label above each column.) Click the button to the far left of the headers. In the list, check the box to show a column. Clear the box to hide it. |
|
Check the (Sorted) box for the list to show in alphabetical order to quickly find a column name. |
Besides controlling which columns are visible, columns can be rearranged. An entire band can be moved, or a column can be moved within the band. Drag a column header or header band to the desired location and drop it when the green arrows appear showing it is a valid drop location.
The width of header bands and columns can also be adjusted. Drag the right side of a header band or a column header to adjust the width. When adjusting the width of a column, the width of the header band might need to be adjusted first.
