Hidden Property Not Working

[jax]

I am trying to hide the PrimaryKeyId of a value using the hidden property but when I place hidden on the column model, it does not render even as a hidden value. If I remove the hidden property from the column model then the value is visible. What am I am missing here?

 obj.colModel = [{ title: "Code", width: 100, dataIndx: "SpecialityCode", dataType: "string" },
            { title: "Description", width: 400, dataIndx: "Description", dataType: "string" },
            { title: "SpecialtyId", hidden: true, dataIndx: "SpecialtyId", dataType: "integer" }];

Here's the html for a record, it does not render the SpecialtyId or third column.

<tr pq-row-indx="3" class="pq-grid-row">
 <td class="pq-grid-number-cell ui-state-default">4</td>
 <td class="pq-grid-cell " pq-col-indx="0">AMB</td>
 <td class="pq-grid-cell " pq-col-indx="1">Services</td>
</tr>

Hidden columns are not rendered in the view.

So when I get row data to save an edited row, will I have access to the hidden field data?

yes! ParamQuery Grid keeps view and data separate.

Data or model is the ultimate truth, so you read and manipulate the data most of the times and ParamQuery keeps the view in sync with your data.

hidden field data  = rowData["dataIndx of hidden column"]
