Column Title not visible for check box columns

[Bharath]

Hi,
I am new to appview and I am evaluating to develop some apps.
I liked so far. I have a question on Column Headers in my form.
As you see in the screenshot, the data appears beautifully - I want check boxes for easy edit.
But the field headings are not appearing.

Please help.

For example, a table may have a boolean column ‘status’, with two options: ‘Visible’ or ‘Hidden’. [image] Currently, the only way to achieve the first option is to use an ENUM column type rathe…

Big disclaimer though, I can’t guarantee that this isn’t just a bug, and might change in the future.

Thank you. Works beautifully. Also is there a way to have the column name as custom. For example Instead of full column name “Active” I want to show label “A” to save space.
