Hello Everyone,

 I need to hide a view column in web, when a user clicks a specified category. Is this possible ? Consider the example below...

Sample view - (Vehicles)

Type Manufacturer CC VehicleName Owner

+SUV

    +ManufacturerA

                               +1100CC

                                           Vehicle1           Person A

                                           Vehicle2           Person B

                               +1300CC

                                           Vehicle3           Person C

                                           Vehicle4           Person D

   +ManufacturerB

                               +1200CC

                                           Vehicle5           Person E

                                           Vehicle6           Person F

                               +1400CC

                                           Vehicle7           Person G

                                           Vehicle8           Person H

From the above example:

a. I need to hide the view column “Owner” when a user clicks the category “1400”. Is this possible ? If yes, how can i achieve this?

Any help on this much appreciated !

Thanks,

Jason.

The view column hide formula has no access to information about what categories are open or closed. However, you can write the Owner column formula to test the category value and return a blank string when the category has that value.

You can base your column hide formula on a (hidden) field. So what you have to do is set the correct field-value.
