Show/Hide Columns

Once you have applied filters so that only useful rows of data are included in the view results, you are ready to select which columns to display and to set their order. There are multiple methods for handling columns. Each is reviewed in this lesson.

Show or Hide Multiple Columns

What you should know:

You will often need to add or remove columns from your view. Momentus uses the terms Show or Hide when referring to columns. You can set the order of the columns, from left to right, at the same time that you select them to show in the view. This is the first of two methods available to change the order of the columns. Show or Hide Columns is the recommended next step after applying filters. Review the tutorial for instructions on how to show (add) or hide (remove) columns from a view.

Hide a Single Column

What you should know:

Users commonly find they only need to remove, or hide, a column. Sometimes this is right after initially selecting columns, but it also a common occurrence when making final revisions or when editing a view. You do not need to access the Column Settings modal to remove a single column. Review the tutorial for the steps to remove a single column from a view.

Rearrange Columns Using Click-and-Drag

What you should know:

Users often need to make changes to the column order as part of final revisions to a new view, or as part of editing an existing view. You can change the placement of a single column within the list page results or section grid using the click-and-drag method (also known as the drag-and-drop method). This is the most effective method when only a few columns need to be moved. Review the tutorial for instructions on how to move a column using the click-and-drag method.

Note

When significant changes to column order are required, or if columns also need to be added or removed, it is often more efficient to return to the Column Settings model. To return to the Column Settings model:

  • Right-click on any column heading
  • Click Show Columns.
