Hiding all columns without a rowheader [message #1463573]

Hello,

Our project has a requirement to not include the row header or corner in our nattable implementation. However, this presents an issue if the end user hides all columns they no longer have a layer to right-click and show all columns. Could someone give us an idea about how to work around this issue.

Thank you,
Dan

Either add a context menu to the NatTable Canvas or add some button or anything similar that allows to recover

Oh, or implement a custom hide command handler that doesn't allow to hide all. For example always one column stays visible

Thank you for the response Dirk. Was thinking along those lines with the command handler.

For your information, the "hide all columns" issue is tracked by the following tickets:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=451486
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=451490

There are contributions for those tickets that will add the ability to check if hiding all columns is possible. The dialog OK button will be disabled if trying to hide all columns. Also the header menu items will use the check to avoid hiding all columns via menu.

After I was able to verify the contribution and hopefully merged it into core, this topic should be done.
