Repeating Grid - Hide column based on condition
Hi,
Is there a way to hide a column in the repeating grid based on a condition. we have a scenario where we have to hide certain columns based on some conditions, is there an option to do it? I dont want to create multiple repeating grids to handle each scenario, it will be a maintaince nightmare. Any thoughts will be appreciated.
Thanks

Up'ing this thread. Did You find a good approach?
Obviously, duplicating the section would be one (albeit unfavorable) approach. Having one section with the repeating grid and therein disable whole columns based on parameters would be great, but I can't too spot a setting on the column that would allow for this.

Hi,
You can select the whole column means both the label and field and add below inline styles which will hide the whole column.
<pega:when test='OperatorID.pyUserName=="Sk Imran Hasan"'>display:none</pega:when>
Condition needs to be change as per your implementation.

Hi Imran,
Will the inline style be applied to Production environment as well. I found that inline style is not for production use.

yes you can use it in Production environment as well. As a best practice you should not use inline style but to achieve the mentioned feature no other way, have to use inline style.

This issue still exists in Pega 7 unfortunately.I remember that we encountered this issue in Pega 6.2 4 years back and then we had the ability to view the code generated by sections in HTML tab.What we did was that we included a pega when check in the auto generated code after the table attribute starts.But with Pega 7 , we are unable to see the auto-generated HTML code for sections and hence cannot edit it. I hope Pega has to come up with an enhancement in fixing this issue.
