Why can't a person with Editor - Can Share permission no hide or unhide an unlocked column? This isn't removing/adding anything to the sheet, just assisting in their ability to view data more effectively in a large sheet.

    Hi @rachelc ,

    Only sheet owners or licensed Admins can manipulate columns like that. Editors can only do data entry.

    All the best,

    Hi Ray, thanks for your quick response. I guess my question to Smartsheet is "why". If an Editor can add data, why can't they be able to hide/unhide unlocked columns to make it easier to view/update, etc. Seems like a less invasive function than adding data.
