Dynamically hide a column

Hi,
I have a requirement where I have some metrics columns as well as attributes and I have created a pivot layout after applying the necessary filters.
Now I want to hide some columns dynamically if it does not have any data. is this possible out of the box.
I have put a attribute in a section so the pivot report has got lets say 4 sections. In this some columns have values in one section but is null in the other section.
My requirement is to hide these null columns dynamically.
Thanks in advance.

One way to achieve this is to create 2 compound layouts; one with the column and one without the column in the same analysis.
The second step would be to create a dashboard with 2 sections that have conditions on them. The first condition would be a count of the column > 0 for the compound layout with the column and the 2nd condition would be a count of the column = 0 for the compound layout without the column.0 -
Hi Joel,
Thanks for the reply. My question was more related to dynamically hide the columns.
Pivot table By Section:
Section1 Attr 1 Attr 2 Attr 3 Attr 4 Measure Col1 Measure Col2 section2 Attr 1 Attr 2 Attr 3 Measure Col1 Measure Col3 Measure Col4 Section 3 Attr1 Attr3 Measure Col1 Measure Col4 0 -
Within a view using section this will not be possible as the rendering is fully dynamic. What you ask for isn't possible.
Remember that you are doing analytics and not pixel-perfect reporting. That's why there is an own product called BI Publisher which does that.
