To add or delete a column to a table, right-click a column and choose an action from the context menu. By default, when Jaspersoft Studio adds a column to a table, the new column inherits the properties of the other columns.
You can drag a column to any position, inside or outside a group. Move a column within the same section by dragging the nodes that represent the columns in the Report Inspector.

Column Groups
A column is composed of a set of cells. If you create a column group, a column heading can span all columns in the group. A column group can include other column groups.
A column group acts as a single when you drag it. If you drag the last column out of a column group, the column becomes a simple column and the remaining group cells are deleted.
When you create a column group, every column section gets a group heading, as shown in “Group headings”, but you can remove unnecessary headings. On the left of the figure there are two columns (most of the sections in the columns have only one record; one section has two records). When the columns are grouped, each column section gets a group heading, as shown in the center. However, most of the group headings are unnecessary, so their heights have been set to zero to hide them, as shown on the right.
