Change columns

From Plex-XML

If you would like to change the visibility of a column or the order of the columns in a grid this could be done very easy within a minute and without calling for your programmer.

If you have sufficient user rights you will find two wrench buttons in the lower left corner of the grid.

After clicking on the right one of these buttons you will get a new screen that shows all available columns of the grid.

The fields are arranged in three columns.

• The first column shows the fields which are currently visible in your grid.
• The second column shows the excluded fields. They are available in the database for this grid but will not be delivered from the Plex server function to the HTML client.
• The third column shows the hidden fields. Those will be delivered to the client but not shown. Those are necessary e.g. for fields which you might want to deliver to other functions. One example is that you will need a record id passed to an update function which is called from the grid. Please be careful and do not exclude those fields. Don't play funny games:-). We will deliver more protection against those unwanted moves in the next version of this functionality of the formats.

In this example we are using the mouse to

• drag the hidden "ID" field and drop it to the list of visible fields

• change the sequence of the "E-Mail" field to the end of the list

After pressing the save button your grid will reload immediately and should look like the one shown below.
