[8.1.7] Perspective Table Column Freezing

Is column freezing already supported in version 8.1.7? I tried the instructions in the Table documentation (Perspective - Table - Ignition User Manual 8.1 - Ignition Documentation) specifically in User Interaction->Freeze a Column but it doesn't seem to work. Also, is there a way to freeze a column through script so user wont have to hold down Alt and double click the column header every time?

No, this isn't currently possible; see this thread for some more context on why it's in the manual:

Thanks for the response, PGriffith.

Let me be the second to bring it up. I have a client that is requiring this. Based on other forum posts about this topic, I started down the kluge of splitting the data across two table but realize this wont work unless up/down scrolling can be synced.

Any idea when this will become a feature of the perspective table or this a way of making this work?

@PGriffith I would also be interested in this feature
