RE: Hide/Show Column on Table
I needed to sort a table by calculated column but did not want to show the column because it took up space
RE: Hide/Show Column on Table
I think the ability to hide a column in a visual is basic functionality, especially if you want to create dynamic measures to use the hidden column for filtering rows!
RE: Hide/Show Column on Table
We could do this with some conditional creativity in SSRS.
Building a drop down to give the user the ability to "show" the columns they want would be huge!
RE: Hide/Show Column on Table
Needed: hide and show table columns managed by the end user.
Example:
* A multinational company with a business unit in each country.
* Every country does maintain the item numbers themselves.
* A worldwide item number format is mapped to the local ones
* Depending on the role the users needs Item and Description:
-> Worldwide only
-> Local only
-> Both
Without this feature we
* either give to much information for some users
* or we have to use bookmarks with a couple of duplicated visuals (Difficult to maintain)
* or we have to create a separated report for every user type (Ugly to maintain)
I totaly agree with Jhinge Pranav. A customer with the requirements above is currently using 200 Qlik licenses and asked us to showcase Power BI. Low brainers like this feature can be a game changer...
RE: Hide/Show Column on Table
The work around of making the font and the background white really doesn't work for a wide column. I have values with the same title, but different ids. I need to show multiple rows of titles where the ids are different and I need the measures to apply the current id, but the ids are ugly and no one wants to see them. Having this feature would be perfect. I hid columns all the time with SSRS. It is even better if you can change the visibility of a column using an expression.
RE: Hide/Show Column on Table
This feature is most needed
RE: Hide/Show Column on Table
This would eliminate the need to create duplicate tables based on whether you need a field to be visible or not.
RE: Hide/Show Column on Table
Because drill-through filtering depends on data included in the source visual, we need to be able to include the column and hide it for that purpose.
RE: Hide/Show Column on Table
Very basic functionality available in all other BI tools, and very much critical for increasing user experience in adding self-service capabilities
RE: Hide/Show Column on Table
Bookmark function in paginated version is heavily needed.
