Which version of Android is on your device? Can you make log errors using adb? I think this will help developers to understand the problem more quickly. ---

I have Note5 V.7 I’m sure if you use components in the column and try to set space-between or around it will crash. I have 25 buttons in the column. Don’t you figure out a way to hide the column with its buttons? ---

I see a problem with the buttons on the hidden Column. Do you want to do this - cover all the buttons in Column with an opaque Column with absolute positioning? ---

Set also the width of Column = 0. ---

Clear. Try this: Column.height = 0 Column.width = 0 Are the buttons gone or still visible? ---

As an experiment, try to hide one button, setting its size = 0. Does the button disappear? ---

I set the minWidth of column to 0 and they are all hidden. But how can I set the minWidth to 100% again in the blocks. Because the column is scrollable. ---

There is another solution - by means of an auxiliary lever (Column) to nominate Columns from the edge of the screen. That is, initially the Column is outside the screen (x = -10000px), and the width of of an auxiliary lever = 0, then set the width of an auxiliary lever = 10000 and Column will be nominated at the screen. ---

I must set minWidth to 100% to make the column scrollable again. Is there any way to set minWidth to 100% in the blocks? ---

We have no minWidth block. ---

Well if I hide the column with its buttons then I cannot return it to scrollable because minWidth is 0% if I set minWidth to 100% the it will be scrollable and I cannot hide the buttons. Hhhhhhhhh What do you mean by x=-10000 would you explain your idea please with more details? Does it work with different devices screens cos you set with pixels. ---

Here’s my idea. ![%D0%B8%D0%B7%D0%BE%D0%B1%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%B6%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%B5](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/a/1/a1f8d429eef591e24b88d57ae04f6d543434887c.png) Using the auxiliary column, we push and push back Columns. ---

Show you an example or did you understand my idea? Simply put, here absolute positioning is used with the aid of an auxiliary column, in which the width changes. ---
