Dynamically Hiding Columns from the Hide/Show List

shawnfoster

I have a data table that has already been initialized and I would like to dynamically hide columns from the hide/show list of the table. When initialized, it is easy to set this using the aiExclude setting. But how to I then access my data table and change this setting on the fly?


Thanks in advance.

Here is what I am trying to do now.

[code]

var oTable = $('#myTable').dataTable();
var settings = oTable.fnSettings();
settings.aiExclude = [3];

[/code]

Currently it is not possible to dynamically change the exclude list of ColVis. A few changes would need to be made to the code to publically expose that.

It would be a huge help if this was possible. :) Perhaps an idea for a future update? :)
