Display a restricted set of columns in columns menu

[Sebastian]

Hello,

in my grid I activated the column menu feature (http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/grid/column-menu). But I have some hidden fields which I not want to be shown in the "Columns" menu item. So, is it possible to restrict the items listed under the "Columns" menu item?

Regards

Sebastian

Hello Sebastian,

Out of the box you can only exclude the column from being shown/hidden through the column menu (i.e. there wont be a checkbox defined for that column which you can check/uncheck). To do so you should use the menu option when defining your column. 

<div id="grid"></div>
<script>
$("#grid").kendoGrid({
  columns: [
    { field: "id", menu: false },
    { field: "name" },
    { field: "age" }
  ],
  columnMenu: true,
  dataSource: [
    { id: 1, name: "Jane Doe", age: 30 },
    { id: 2, name: "John Doe", age: 33 }
  ]
});
</script>
