Why we did this

Listing tables were getting wide, and nothing let a person hide the columns they didn't need.

What happened

A Columns button now opens a checklist that shows or hides table columns, with a badge counting what's visible. The next cycle moved it into the library and onto the app's listings.

Early → finalA Columns button above the table shows or hides each column, and its badge says how many are showing.

How we got here

Each change, traced back to the conversation it came from. A solid mark means the record names the source; a dashed one was matched by the draft and waits for review.

Someone said

From the record: no recorded conversation behind this one.

We decided

c93-D1 The picker works on the data table, as a checkbox popover above the whole table. — Mark Parson

c93-D2 Show and hide only: no reordering and no saved preference. — Mark Parson

c93-D3 The identity column is locked, and at least one column always stays visible. — Mark Parson

So now

A Columns button above the table shows or hides each column, and its badge says how many are showing.

Someone said

From the record: no recorded conversation behind this one.

We decided

c93-D4 The panel can open above its button, so the table stays visible while you toggle. — Mark Parson

So now

The list now opens above the button, so the columns you're toggling stay in view.

Ruled the picker's shape and spotted the covered columns

Settled all seven open questions on the day the plan was written (popover on the table, show and hide only, a locked first column, its own popover part), then asked for the panel to open upward after seeing it cover the columns.
