Epic idea: Hide, show, expand, and collapse tabular columns

[Miguel_Myers]

It would be beneficial to incorporate features from Pivot tables that allow for the expansion and collapse of columns and hierarchical column groups within tabular visuals. This would not only solve the current limitations of matrices but also provide report creators with the flexibility to hide and show rows and columns, saving these settings for future use, thus eliminating the need to scroll through irrelevant data.

Yes, needed for showing Year -> Quarter -> Month.

Yes, absolutely needed for showing Year -> Quarter -> Month.

Time examples have already been posted and valid for me as well. Beside that I'd like to generally be able to show aggregated information in columns which are shown per default, but add additional information for the user in per default hidden columns beside, which the user can expand if he's interested in (to give one other example: to e.g. see which orders on hand are already confirmed, overdue, etc.)

Same here... we discussed a case: Weeks in the columns and the possibility to +(show) the single days of only the last week.

Yes we need this Visual

Should be very handy. Year -> Quarter -> Month.

Being able to collapse heading will allow for looking at 2 distant columns next to each other.

Exactly! The idea is that this feature is available for both rows and columns. It will help a lot in analyzing the information.

Hi. First of all the expand/collapse on Rows is GREAT!. I would like it also on Columns. Right now I am doing a Sales Dashboard and I need to add a + sign to expand to show UNITS as well as the Sales Amount. So I definitely think it would be a great add.

Yes please!
