  • Most of my columns are financial data, so hiding overflown information would be a big problem. Commented Mar 29, 2011 at 8:06
  • It am not familiar with that business, but are all columns equally important always? Otherwise it could be an option to supply different views on the same data, each with a different set of columns visible (using virtual tabs or something similar to switch views), and on hover the complete row of data is visible? Is that feasible? Secondly, i am assuming the numbers vary from e.g. 0 to very large numbers. Maybe it is handy to some sort of visual/textual shortcut, like >1M (a category of sorts) and on sort show the actual value? Just thinking out loud. Commented Mar 29, 2011 at 8:20
  • Well, it's a banking app so accurate values are very important. And unfortunately it's not an option to offer a different set of views than what we have at the moment. Commented Mar 29, 2011 at 8:30
