Add "Columns" Component in Data Property

Hi, I'm trying to implement the Data Property with the "Columns" Component that contains measures and dimensions.
Like what is in this photo:

But I could only figure out how to visualize the dropdown button without measures and dimensions because this part is not documented.

This is the code I arrived at:

Hi @Nastiapom , are you trying to have this box that show you if you want to add a column as dimension or measure?

Hi @alex_colombo ! Thank you for the replay.
I can dislpay the box and the options like in this capture:

But when I click in any field, nothing happens.
My problem is that I can't visualize the data (list of fields after selection).
Like here:

I only have the button without fileds.

Did anyone found the answer for this scenario?

Nope.

I'll just say I've seen some variation of this question asked multiple times here over the last few years and I dont think anyone has found an answer.

 

The "columns" property panel component doesn't seem to be documented anywhere.

Actually I found the correct way to add it but now Im getting new kind of issue while using it.
Please check Dimensions & Measures as columns in Qlik Sense pro... - Qlik Community - 2021036

Thanks

I think I have a working sample:

define( [ "qlik"],
function ( qlik) {
	const indexAdded = function(e, t) {
		let n;
		for (n = 0; n < e.length; ++n)
		e[n] >= 0 && e[n] >= t && ++e[n];
		e.push(t)
	};

	const indexRemoved = function(e, t) {
				let n, i = 0;
				for (n = 0; n < e.length; ++n)
					e[n] > t ? --e[n] : e[n] === t && (i = n);
				return e.splice(i, 1),
				i
	};
	return {
		initialProperties:{
			qHyperCubeDef:{
				qDimensions: [],
				qMeasures: [],
				qMode: "S",
				columnWidths:[],
				columnOrder: []
				}
		},
		definition:{
			type: "items",
			component: "accordion",
			items: {
				data:{
					type: "items",
					component: "columns",
					translation: "Common.Data",
					sortIndexRef: "qHyperCubeDef.qColumnOrder",
					allowMove: true,
					allowAdd: true,
					addTranslation: "Common.Columns",
					items: {
						dimensions: {
							uses:"dimensions",
							min:1,
							max:5,
							add(e, t, o) {
								console.log("add dimension");
								const n = o.hcProperties.qColumnOrder
								, i = o.hcProperties.columnOrder
								, l = o.hcProperties.columnWidths
								, r = o.getDimensions().length - 1;
								return indexAdded(n, r),
								indexAdded(i, r),
								l.splice(r, 0, -1),
								e
							},
							remove(e, t, o, n) {
								const i = o.hcProperties.qColumnOrder
								, l = o.hcProperties.columnOrder
								, r = o.hcProperties.columnWidths;
								indexRemoved(i, n),
								indexRemoved(l, n),
								r.splice(i[n], 1)
							}
						},
						measures: {
							uses:"measures",
							min:1,
							max:5,
							add(e, t, o) {
								console.log("add measure");
								const n = o.hcProperties.qColumnOrder
								, i = o.hcProperties.columnOrder
								, l = o.hcProperties.columnWidths
								, r = o.getDimensions().length + o.getMeasures().length - 1;
								indexAdded(n, r),
								indexAdded(i, r),
								l.splice(n[r], 0, -1)
							},
							remove(e, t, o, n) {
								const i = o.hcProperties.qColumnOrder
								, l = o.hcProperties.columnOrder
								, r = o.hcProperties.columnWidths
								, s = (o.hcProperties.qDimensions ? o.hcProperties.qDimensions.length : 0) + n;
								indexRemoved(i, s),
								indexRemoved(l, s),
								r.splice(s, 1)
							}
						}
					}
				}
