Thanks. But what I want is to hide the unwanted attributes at summary view, not just hide them when I click on entry.


No you can't do that.

Assume that you have different types of entries, ones where your unwanted attributes are missing and ones where they are present. If you would hide them, they would be missing even for the entries where you want them. Or you would change the table layout for every line, meaning that attributes which are common in all entries do not line up nicely below each other.

An other approach would be to make elog hide those columns which do not contain any value in the whole page, but that is not (yet) implemented.


I may have all the attributes in logbook to keep a full record of all the machine. But for daily use, some of the attibutes we are not using so often. Too many attributes will make the window so big that can not be hold in one screen which is the reason why I want to hide some of them. Of course the hidden attributes have data, but those data are rarely used so we'd rather hide them.

Since "show attributes" prevent from inputing attributes, may not be suitable in this case. We appreciate if you can impletement a new feature like "view attibutes" which do not affect adding new entry, just hide attributes at summary view.
