I am trying to achieve a two column layout that can be seen here:
https://www.bootply.com/nvbAWqnaC9
I have accomplished this using 'hidden-*' classes to re-order the columns but am wondering if there is a better way to achieve this same layout?
Also, for consideration.. I understand the float left will disrupt the layout if the right column is longer vertically than the left column. I don't expect this to ever be the case but if there is a simple solution I would appreciate hearing it.

I don't understand why I'm looking at results and am not able to see the full column name. And then have to manually click through and expand each column I want to see. Is there really no way to do this?
Non expanded columns in results
I've researched but have found no one asking or even wondering about this. Am I the only one in the world who has a problem with this?!
I found that DataTables now supports colspan and rowspan. but to use it better, I needed to duplicate same data thrice. What I need to make is something as image below, and I can't find whether DataTables supports splitting a row into multiple rows.
The image shows how I modify each set of data. It means, there will be 5 columns for each data, and it will be split into 3 lines.
Even the question was about duplicating, if there's other way to make a row/set of row for each data with same shape as image, than please explain.
Ok, I found very wierd trick.
I just made display:none to original table, and only showed child row table.
Not like original table, child row was free to custom the format.
The answer of other question on the link was useful.

I have a group of trellis graphs on some data, in there you can see a numeric variable on the Y axis and a series of cell dishes on the X axis. Not all the numeric values are present on all the series of cells. Because of this the visualization results in a graph with empty spaces:
This is OK most of the time but the thing is I would like to avoid the "empty spaces, only in these graph series, that you can see between the bars. I would like to see showing only the pattern of the cell dishes where I have data.
Trying to do so I tried creating a calculated column to use it as a ordering index (https://docs.tibco.com/pub/sfire-bauthor/7.9.0/doc/html/en-US/GUID-8CAA18D0-CF28-4707-9945-041BDFD99E99.html) (Sorting Filter values asc/desc on Tibco Spotfire), after that "Limit data by expression" using a "[MyColumn] is not null" on it (https://community.tibco.com/questions/can-i-automatically-make-spotfire-ignore-empty-values-categories-charts) (How to show the top 10 column values in Spotfire) with no luck and I tried also (https://docs.tibco.com/pub/spotfire/6.5.1/doc/html/ncfe/ncfe_details_on_custom_expression.htm) create a custom expression, which I think it would be a good solution because I understand it will only affect these graphs and not the complete set of visualizations but no, I don't reach the point to change it. Last that it should work but it doesn't is to "Show/Hide Items" under a Boolean expression that it would include that "[Axis.Value] is not NULL" and "Apply individually for each trellis panel" of the numeric column which sound terrific but... nope, it didn't work either...
Any help would be appreciated, now I will select one by one on individual graphs extracting them and plotting them in other place but this is not very useful as a "large scale" solution. I am sure there is a way to insert a proper expression to avoid the null values of the cross of both variables, the numeric and the cell dishes.
this is because you are trellising data, not the axis. you won't be able to filter out values on the x axis; it's simply not how trellis works.
using multiple visualizations is the solution, but I assume you've got n sets of categories that you want to separate out without creating a ton of charts on the page and perhaps you can't guarantee the number of categories or their names, so you want to build a flexible solution.
please check out an answer I just wrote over here which illustrates how to use a document property and a property control to limit a visualization. your property control can be linked to automatically and dynamically display unique values in your "category" column (the one you are trellising by). maybe this can be a solution for you?
My colleague and I have taken over a vb.net project that uses Crystal Reports (I have CR9 on my PC).
The user has given the following feedback to us on how he would like the reports changed.
1) At the moment, it is wasting space by showing empty columns. How is it possible to not show the columns where all values are "-"? (I've tried using Crosstab Expert, however there are some reports where the columns have second sub-columns with titles in, so with these ones it shows them as it treats the columns as not empty)
2) The crosstabs at the moment are displaying from left to right, and are adding next to each other. My user wants the tables to go underneath each other, so that the report goes downwards, rather than sideways. How is this possible?
If anybody knows a fix to either of these issues that would be great, thanks.
In regards to the empty columns, you can choose a custom style in the Crosstab Expert and select Suppress Empty Columns
If the dashes don't count as empty, you might need to change the crosstab to evaluate a formula which replaces the dashes as zeroes or blanks.
I'm not aware of a good way to make a crosstab separate vertically as you specified. But you could swap the rows with the columns. It appears to me you have way more columns than you do rows, which should fit better on the page.
I suppose you are using the database field directly in the cross tab which is the reason you are getting -. Possible approach would be to write a condition and use that in cross tab. something like below
Create a formula #Formula1
if {Database.field}<>"-"
then {Database.field} //You can end the condition here if you wish
else "" // If you write else then check option supress empty rows or columns as per requirement
Now create a cross tab using Formula1 and display
Coming to your second problem , If you not wish to spread cross tab horizontally then you can pivote cross tab by Right click on cross tab or go to cross tab expert and give the fields that spread in rows part and that are static in column part.
Hope this helps
For the sake of clarity, I'm not looking for the transpose function, like has been asked previously on this site quite a few times.
The excel table object (Insert>Table) is exactly what I want. All I'd like to do is rotate the table for readability purposes. Currently, I have far more columns than rows, and it would improve readability a lot if the axes were flipped so that the vertical aspect of the scroll wheel could be used while looking at the data
My current data is a list of machining jobs. Each row is one job for one customer, and each column is a different parameter corresponding to settings/cost/material. With the tables, I'm able to dynamically sort the jobs in the table based on each of the parameters in a very helpful manner. This is the most important thing: to continue being able to dynamically sort based on the parameters. So far, I have been unable to find a way to transfer dynamic sorting to row headings instead of column headings.
