Select Tool

[PWC_Bob]

In the Academy it mentions removing a column by unchecking the box in the configuration area. When I used the Try It excerise the remove checkboxes are not present. What do I need to do to have them appear for unchecking?

Hi @PWC_Bob 

Few of the purpose of Select tool is removing columns, renaming, reordering.

So basically when you connect select tool to any data you will get options like below

And as per first task all the columns should not be there is output. Hence you need to uncheck to remove them.

Coorect, but there is no checkboxes for me to remove the columns.

Hi @PWC_Bob 

What you are getting is really strange.

Can you do one thing towards left there is something like this.

Can you click on the downward facing arrow. It will expand like below.

Run the workflow and check the select tool in them.

[PWC_Bob]

No checkbox option on it as well.

and can you try resizing at the edges

If there is a scroll bar below

Can you check with that too.
