...

  • It is triggered by clicking the Columns action in the column contextual menu
  • The component contains two lists:
    • Selected Columns (on the right): a list of the currently displayed columns of the table
    • Available Columns (on the left): a list of all other columns available for that table
  • Between the two lists there is a set of buttons, allowing the user to move items between them (as described below)
  • Under the selected columns list there is a set of buttons, allowing the user the reorder the selected items (as described below)
  • Next to the selected columns title there is an indicator, showing the number of selected items out of the total number of items (e.g. 7/22)
  • At the top of each list there is a search bar, allowing the user to quickly locate specific items. The search bar is optional, depending on the number of items
  • If the list is too long to be displayed in its container, a vertical scroll bar appears
  • At the bottom-left corner of the dialog box a Restore Defaults button appears (see Interaction below)
