Can't Expand/Collapse Columns, no Layout Assist button
« on: April 08, 2023, 12:26:29 pm »
Hi there. I had some technical issues back in February with upgrading to the January update that you fixed for me. Somewhere in that process, possibly even prior, I lost the ability to collapse columns in the Sold Items (all the sheets actually). I've hidden a bunch of columns that I don't need, but it's still pretty wide and the collapse feature is nice. 

I referred back to the tutorial videos but don't see the Layout Assist button. Did you guys remove that button, is my file messed up, or has it been deprecated for some reason?

Thanks,
Mike

Mike,
The 'Click Layout Assist' button was in fact deprecated and replaced with an updated 'Hide all 'H' column' button.
See how it works here at the 5:00 mark in this video:  https://youtu.be/52av5AyjUmg

The old Click Layout Assist caused performance issues, especially on larger files, and caused a lot of confusion with users, which is why this change was implemented.

I hope that helps; I am open to suggestions to improve future updates as well if you have any feedback about the new button.
