Improperly scoped variable 'fv!row' in gridColumn

Question

Hi, 
 Could you tell me why the "fv!row" is not accepted for gridColumn attributes other than "value" please ? 
 How may I hide this column using showWhen ? 
 a!gridColumn( label: fv!row.label => Improperly scoped variable value: fv!row.amount, => OK no issue showWhen: fv!row .isactive => Improperly scoped variable ),

Hi Cedric, 
 My thoughts - Only the value part changes for every row in a grid column. The attributes like label, width & showWhen conditions remain static on the whole grid and don't vary between the rows. Hence the scope of ' fv!row ' is limited only to the 'value' attribute. 
 Coming to your requirement, 
 If you want to hide an entire column, then this link will help you - https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.3/recipe-conditionally-hide-a-column-in-a-grid.html 
 If you want to hide the value when the row is inactive, then you can code like below. 
 a!gridColumn(
 label: "Label",
 value: if(fv!row.isactive,fv!row.amount,null())
)
