How to choose which column for the inline action button to be resided?

Hello all,

for inline actions
I notice that action buttons tend to pile up in one cell/column
and also blocking the value of such column

  1. may I direct which column the action button would reside to so that it is not blocking the crucial columns?

Thanks

Hello @San_Tou, you can designate in which column should the action button reside, it is recommended that you assign the action buttons to an auxiliary column:

That way you get to display the information from your important columns while still getting to show your action buttons, you can place several buttons on a single column, but each action added increases the column width to make room for the action buttons

Very clear explanations thank you!
I am just going to create a virtual column for that purposes
