Is there swipable columns in Datatables?

Hi, i like the horizontal scrolling but not all users are intuitive enough to understand that part.
i came across Tablesaw and they do a nice job in multiple columns with swipable columns.
i'm a big fan of datatables i hope we have a similar solution soon.

no.5 in the example.

    I don't see why it wouldn't be possible to implement that for DataTables using the page() method. It isn't something that I have done though I'm afraid.

    Edit - I misunderstood slightly. You would use columns().visible() to set the column visibility. Still not something I've done though I'm afraid.

    I'm not aware of anyone else having created such a plug-in for DataTables, so yes, if you wanted this functionality it would need to be implemented.
