Hide empty repeating column in matrix

Hi all

 

I have a matrix with multiple years in the columns section (2014-2020)

 

There is one value-column (pipeline) that always only exists in the current year. To display it we have to show an empty column in every other year.

We cannot use a card visual because its not just one value (many rows).

Any advice is appreciated 🙂

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

How tables and matrix you can define the size of the column so you can hide then until is invisible just drag the border of the column, be aware that you may need to turn off word wrap on the options on column headers.
