[Solved] getCellByColumnUniqueName only works for visible columns

[Paul]

Hi,
    Why does getCellByColumnUniqueName only work for visible columns? If I use it to get a cell value for a column that has visible=false then it returns null.

Is there a workaround for this?

Thanks

Typical as I type that I find Display property which I can set to false to achieve the results I'm after.

Can you explain the difference between the visible and display propeties?

Hello,


Display property indicates whether the cells corresponding to a column should be rendered with a 'display:none' style attribute (and hence we can access the values) . Visible property is useful if you do not want to show/hide a column or completely prevent cells from rendering, server-side.
