[Free Extension] Better Columns: resize, pin, reorder and hide list columns

[Alexis]

Hi everyone,

I built this extension "Better Columns" because I wanted a better way (for me) to manage columns in EspoCRM.

It lets each user adjust the columns of EspoCRM list views for themselves.
Nothing changes for other users, and the administrator's layouts stay untouched.

All the features in this video :



What it does:

• Resize a column by dragging its border, or double-click the border to fit it to its content
• Fit all columns from the Columns menu
• Reorder columns by dragging their headers
• Pin as many columns as you need to the left: they stay in place while the rest of the table scrolls
• Hide the columns you don't use, and show them again from the Columns menu
• Reset order, widths, pins and visibility in one click

Change columns order

Your layout is saved in your browser, so it's still there when you come back.


Pin 1 or more columns

Administrators can turn it on for all lists, only for administration lists, or per entity (for example, only Leads and Accounts).

You can download better-columns-1.1.0.zip from the latest release.

It's free, open source, and bug reports and suggestions are welcome, here or on GitHub.

Hi Alexis, this seems to be a great extension. One question: you write, the user`s configuration is saved in the browser. But does this not mean, after deleting the history of the browser, they will be gone?
And I guess, it will not be possible for an user to add a column, the admin did not put into the list layout, right?
