In version 14.5.0, the nestedHeader, manualColumnMove, and hiddenColumns plugins do not work together when using custom nested headers and manual column movement.
I hope youāre doing well. I wanted to follow up on the status of this issue. Could you please provide any updates or a trackable link where I can monitor the progress?
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to follow up on my previous inquiry. It has been almost a month since my communication, and I am eagerly awaiting an update.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
This issue was classified as a feature request as there is no support for the manualColumnMove with hiddenColumns within the nestedHeaders plugin. Alone, all those plugins work well. However, combining them together would require additional logic within the nestedHeaders plugin.
We are currently working on a new React wrapper and Themes, which will surely take us another 2-3 months.
We have your forum ID and topic linked to the main issue in the internal issue board and will surely notify you once it is ready.

We have just released Handsontable v15.0.0 with Themes as a new feature. We do not plan to release any new features in 2024, and the roadmap for 2025 is not yet ready.
I will ensure you are informed as soon as this feature is added to the list.
We are still collecting issues internally for a general roadmap. Surely we will be doing additional changes/fixes for Themes and improving our tests (especially visual tests as Handsontable visually changed). I do not know if we would have any feature coming in Q1/25. That is yet now specified.
We are working on the POC for manualColumnMove and nestedHeaders (along with collapsibleColumns) but this is an early stage, we havenāt created any code yet - weāre working on the specification. I will update you when we will have any demo to show.
Hi @jagjeet.winjit, We were just wondering if you would be interested in a workaround until we make the necessary changes on our side. The POC hasnāt been finished and was postponed (we have other 3 features coming up in v16.1), so it is worth checking for other ways to make customers happy and allow them to use the product.
So, based on my knowledge about your use case it seem that you could try to remove hiddeColumns from the equation and use updateSettings() method to pass your new columns settings once
you can receive a notification from the server to rearrange the view of columns
user wants to hide a column (in this case you can create a custom context menu to run your updateSettings > columns configuration
If there is a need to show indicators that a column is hidden you can pass custom HTML in the headers.
Of course, that can take some time to develop, but it is a workaround that uses our official API and does not seem to have any reported bugs.
Within the current support plan, I cannot share any custom-created demos, but if you have any difficulties during the POC, weāll be happy to guide you and provide any necessary resources that are available.
