Dynamic column names in "colvis buttons"

skike

Is it possible to change column name in colvis?

I found a way to change table header on click, but how to change title in colvis list?

I've tried this:

$(table.column(0).header()).text("Full name");
table.settings()[0].aoColumns[0].sTitle="Full name";
$(table.buttons()[0].inst.s.buttons[0].conf._collection).find('span:first').text("Full name");

this is a bit hacky, but works.
Maybe someone know how to do this 'official way'.
Hope I helped

Thanks! This works for me.

That's really hacky and requires you to manually set every single title. What happened to the label callback function described here: https://www.datatables.net/extensions/colvis/options ?

Note that I have looked at https://datatables.net/reference/button/colvis and don't see the callback function, so I'm wondering if it's not documented, missing, or if there's another way to accomplish this
