Interactive Grid - How to hide a column for user, but not for Actions / Data / Sort

thilo333Jun 7 2019 — edited Jun 7 2019

Hi together,

I'm still working with APEX 5.1. / Oracle 11.2.0.4.

Order-by-clause is not allowed in interactive grid.

So I use Actions / Data / Sort.

I need a sort sequence depending on column-content, but not in alphabetic sequence.

For example this table is sorted in alphabetic sequence:

Job 
manager
president
salesman

I want to use a column sortsequence:

Job          sortsequence 
president    1
salesman     2
manager      3

sortsequence is a column created in sql query.

For using the sortsequence in Actions / Data / Sort it must be visible, not hidden. But for the user it should be hidden.

So how to hide the sortsequence?

My Idea is to set a fixed column width = 1 Pixel. But in column properties I only find "minimum width".

Is there any way to fix this problem?

Thanks a lot!

Greetings Thilo
