    @Avinash Krishnaram-Oracle Hi Avinash , first let mi ask following question: Is this hiding column feature so difficult to implement, that it has such long term ETA ?
    Second:

    If I understand what is behind this requirement - it is about being able to set alternate sorting based on atribute column (not a measure column) which is not included in visualization (it is used solely for sorting). For that i have created in January following idea (Under Oracle review status):

    https://community.oracle.com/products/oracleanalytics/discussion/20687/ability-to-set-sorting-on-alternative-column-in-dv-data-sets-based-on-attribute-column

    Would’nt be simplier to implement this Idea to fulfill this sorting requirement instead of dealing with this hiding column ? Just an idea, but worth to think about it.

    Thanks for your reaction.

    Hi Michal,

    Any code change that deals with the data model of the viz / affects the grain of the query is a very complex change.

    Author's need can be broken down into three categories:

    Obtain values from columns related to the displayed result set but not part of it. These will include:

    1. Sort based on a column that is not visible (e.g. sort months by month number/ID, sort employees by employeeID)
    2. Impact visual appearance of the chart without having the column values present (e.g., color)
    3. Ability to pass appropriate values of a column via Data Actions in the context of the selected data point without introducing the column to the visible chart.

    Thanks.

    Hi Avinash,

    Thanks for comprehensive answer. My second question seems to be not answered (at least I cannot deduct it). I understand that there is complexity in implementation of both ideas : hiding column and alternate sorting by attribute column - are both having the same complexity of implementation than ?

    Thanks again
