Hello Nikhil Jain,

Our columns have a property called IsVisible - when this property is set to false the respective column will become invisible. You can access the columns by using the Columns property on RadGridView.

i used a piece like this to hide during Grouping.

private void inventoryReportGrid_Grouping(object sender, GridViewGroupingEventArgs e)
        {

            ColumnGroupDescriptor gd = (ColumnGroupDescriptor)e.GroupDescriptor;
            var column = gd.Column;
            if (e.Action == GroupingEventAction.Place)
            {
                if (column != null)
                {
                    column.IsVisible = false;
                }
            }
            else if (e.Action == GroupingEventAction.Remove)
            {
                if (column != null)
                {
                    column.IsVisible = true;
                }
            }

        }

Hello Milan ,

Do you know the impact of hide the column for print and export? If I hide a column, will it still being printed or exported?

Thx,
David

Hello Nikhil Jain,

If a column is hidden it will not be exported or printed.
