Hide particular columns?

[rlwpub]

Is there any way to hide particular columns in the different list views on 0.9?

[Andrew]

Yes.  There are two ways. If you are using the ajax addon, you can click in the eye icon in the top-left corner of the table, and re-order, show, and hide columns on the listItems page.  This will only alter it for the current page on this view - when you refresh, it will revert to defaults.  You can use this if you wanted to, say, create a custom print of a list.

Or if you're comfortable tweaking the source code, look for the array called $show, as that's what's used to set visibility: e.g. $show['dateCompleted'] sets the visibility of the "Date Completed" column.

The problem seems to be with Firefox 3.04 running under Ubuntu Linux. I just tried Flock and all the problems I posted about seem to have cleared up.

GTD-PHP looks completely different and better in Flock and looks like a .8 version in Firefox.

I did a search and wanted to add more to this thread...sorry for bumping it up, but it could be helpful to others who search too.

"Or if you're comfortable tweaking the source code, look for the array called $show, as that's what's used to set visibility: e.g. $show['dateCompleted'] sets the visibility of the "Date Completed" column."

For reference, edit displayItems.inc.php and add at the top:

Code:

<?php
  unset($show['timeframe']); //Hide the Time Context Column
  unset($show['recurdesc']); //Hide the Repeat Column
?>

Ajax addon will allow you to unhide these.

yes, setting them to false should work too (and may work better, in that there won't be any warnings about absent index keys.

It just looks for empty columns and tells the disparray not to show them if there is nothing show.
