Data table columns

[Anonymous]

How can I freeze or hide columns in data table connected from SHP file?

Hi,

welcome @Anonymous.autodesk.com!

You can reorder the columns, so you get the ones you need more, close together (click and hold left mousebutton on the colums-header, then move the mouse to show the new position for the column)

You can change the width of a column, there for position the mouse over the right border of the column-header, then click and drag the border to change the width. There is no option available to "hide" a column.

Sorry to say that all these changes are only a temporary, changing the drawing or changing the view to another table makes all modifications undone.

Just a hint, sometimes the property window is a good choice to edit data (especially to edit a value for more selected objects at once.

HTH, - alfred -

if there is data in the table you do not want others to have or you do not need for theming use or another reason

consider

Mapimport of the .shp selecting all the data fields

and

Mapexport to a new .shp selecting only those fields you want in the table

this is a new data set that holds only the data fields so you have to remember that changing the original will not have any effect on the new set and you will have to keep changes current by some method

Thank you. It doesnt work for me because I need to keep all the data and the same time working in the table where so many columns kind of hard.
