I'd like to provide my users with an available list of columns, and then have them select which columns they want to see. The select dropdown would need to dynamically show/hide the table columns. Is there any way to do this?

I figured it out. It must have changed in the last year. Basically you turn on dynamic column settings without a function (so just on) and then add the multiselectlistbox.value array into the column settings input.
