Hi @restika.r

you use the hook to hide columns while the button that expands the columns shows some of them. Can you tell me what is the desired result?

By default, I understand that all columns are shown (none are hidden) and you want to collapse all the nested headers. However, what should happen when I click the button?

the issue was not with button. the button working fine. but when I extend B column. the C column disappear.

.

Thank you for the details. I will investigate the issue and come back at the latest on Monday.

Hi @restika.r

In your example, you hide columns, but you also need to update the nestedHeaders as those headers do not update automatically. That is why when you expand the B column and hide some columns, one of the C data transfers to the B parent column.
You can use the updateSettings method to rearrange the nestedHeaders.

#8

okay, so when I hide column. I need to update nested header because it’s not automatically updated. am i right?

#9

That is correct. This is caused by a bug so please treat that as a workaround.
I am still investigating the bug. If we use hiddenColumns via context menu it works well. However, doing the same via hiddenColumn API fails.
I will update you as soon as I narrow down the case and report it to our official issue board.

Hi @restika.r

I would like to come back to you with the news.

I have consulted our Tech Lead and been notified that the connection of nestedHeaders + collapsibleColumns and hiddenColumns plugins hasn’t been fully tested yet and it may cause some issues.

Here https://github.com/handsontable/handsontable/issues/7833 we have an issue report that relates to the connection of those plugins.
