How to customize the column list in the table settings? (fiori elements)

[alina_be76]

I have a fiori elements app where I created a list report. This has a table with columns. In the settings of the table I can choose which additional columns I want to be displayed or which columns i want to hide. How can i customize this column list. 

My goal is to delete some columns of that column list in the settings, because the user should not be able to choose them.

Hi,

either you do it via the annotation mentioned already @ui.hidden or you have a breakout in the frontend coding.

You get the SmartTable where you want to disable certain columns and you call the setIgnoredFields method:

var oSmartTable = this.getView().byId("<table_id>");
				oSmartTable.setIgnoredFields("<ColumnName>,<ColumnName2>,...");

How about setting the UI.hidden: true annotation for the fields you do not want to expose to the user?

This solves so that the columns cannot be selected but they are still seen in the settings for 'Sort' and for 'Group'.
