you can't hide columns that are used as groups, but you can hide numerical columns (implicit measures, explicit measures, calculated columns and visual calculations)

How do you hide calculated columns? When creating a table visual, I am only able to hide a calculated column if it is aggregated (for example choosing Count or Average instead of Don't summarize) even if the calculated column returns a numeric value. I can hide measures and visual calculations just fine, though.

    I get it. No, you can't hide an unaggregated calculated column, because that is then being used as a group not a detail. if you add an max aggregation for example you can hide it just fine. the core difference is not that this is a calculated column, it's about how you use it: a group vs a detail. You can't hide grouping columns.
