View all details of a column with responsive?

btb12

I am using the ellipsis render to limit the amount of characters in a column of my table.

Is it possible to use the responsive extension to display the entire column's info when it is expanded?

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hi @btb12 ,

Yep, you can have a custom render that can show anything - see this example.

Cheers,
