Hi

Can we have a dynamic column Layout using Pager ?  (The columns of the Layout should change depending on the Pager entity selected)

Thanks,
Vamsi.

    There's no inbuilt functionality for that, but depending on exactly what you need (are the columns entities or cubes?) you could use a combination of cubes and/or entities/relationships to make it work.

    We have developed something similar for a client, where depending on the site (which is applied as a screen selection) the columns that are hidden/visible in the dataview change.

    Can you provide any more details?

    The Columns are Entities. 

    Please find the details of the requirement:

    1. I have a pager with two entities Entity1 and Entity2.
    2. When I select Entity1 the layout should have columns Month, Store, Region, and when I select Entity2 the columns should be Month, Store, Brand.

    Please let me know if the above scenario can be achieved.

    Hi @Vamsi Krishna,

    did you think about using the "Quick Layout Edit" function described here in our manual: https://www.boardmanual.com/Board_10.6_Release_Notes.htm

    Kind Regards,

    HI Vamsi, Not quite sure what you're wanting to show still, as that'll give a lot of columns with multiples of each entity.  What is by row in the layout?

    Any chance you can paste a snip of the two desired dataviews in here to give a better idea?
