Adding

(Note: these options are only available when in developer mode)

There are three ways to add columns in tables

1. Click on the green button to bring up the panel configuration menu and select Add Column

2. Click on a column to bring up the column menu. This method allows you to place the new column in between existing columns. In the menu, select whether to add the new column to the right or left of the selected column

3. Click on an open area of the header in order to bring up the header menu. In the menu, select Add Column.

Editing

There are two ways to edit columns

1. Click on the header of the column to bring up the column menu and select Edit Column

2. Click on the green button to bring up the panel configuration menu. Highlight Edit Column to bring up the list of columns and select the column

Both options will open the Edit Column window, which is the same as the Add Column window.

Example

Conditional Formatting

Formatting can be used to highlight data in specific formats when certain parameters are met. In this example, the Price is set to be in bold red and highlighted if it is greater than $50.

Copying

In order to copy a column, click on the column to be copied and select Copy Column. This will bring up the Edit Column menu. Apply a different name and click Update.

Note: if the column to be copied has any input in its fields, those fields will also be copied.
