These default names can be replaced by custom name for any column.

In the Edit Column Names dialog, click the + icon to add a column name customization :

Nested Columns

You can group Grid columns and configure a common title on top of the columns titles.
The top title is called a “Parent Column”, and the regular Grid column titles are called “Child Columns” of this Parent Column.

Under Column Settings, click Edit Nested Columns to open the editor.

Create a Nested Column

Click Create New to start creating a new Nested Column :

Grid Nested create click

A new un-configured row appears, and lets you configure :

  • Parent Column Name : the text label you want to use on the Parent title
  • Child Columns : the list of children columns that are nested under this Parent Column. This is where you can list, add, or remove children
  • Delete : click to delete this Parent column.

Grid Nested child add click

You can create several separate Nested Columns.

Add / Remove Children

Under Child Columns, click Add to select which current Grid columns you want to nest under this Parent Column.
The Add Child Column dialog appears, to let you select an available Column from the Grid :

Grid Nested child select click

The column names are then listed in the Edit Nested Columns dialog :
