How to have the column not visible by default?

[Unisolgr14]

Firstly, powergrid datatables is a wonderful plugin and I love it.I really appreciate your development team. It reduced my development time. But, I have some issues . How can we make the column invisible not hide and later after the datatable is populated the user will have the option to make it visible through the columntoggle button. And secondly how to give the size of the columns manually(the width).

Try

For the hidden:
Add the following hidden method with params as:

     ->hidden(true, false),

For the styling:
Add the bodyAttribute to the Column with parameters

   ->bodyAttribute('any-class', 'min-width: 25vw; max-width: 25vw'),
