Lock Columns

Users now have the ability on a grid to lock the left most # of columns. This means that when you scroll to the right to view other columns, those columns locked will remain visible. This is handy when you have a bunch of columns and want to see who the data is for as you scroll. To set this:

  1. Click on the on PREFS icon when the grid is displayed.
  2. Set the number of locked columns. For example, if this is set to 2, then the 2 left most columns will not move when horizontally scrolling.

When this is set, the locked columns in the grid don’t have the scroll bar beneath them.

  3. Click on the PREFS icon on the top.
