Maximum Number of Columns Per View?

Hi - in earlier versions of DOORS there was once a limit of 32 columns per view. Does anyone know if there is still a limit for version 9.x?

Yes, but as from version 9.4 it was raised to 128 columns

... if I remember correctly you can get > 32 columns after 9.4 versions by setting the database minimum client to be 9.4

Nice To Know.  We used to have to get creative with layout DXL to include all the desired information in prior versions.

There is also the DXL Attribute Wizard by which you can combine attribute values to one column (Edit Attributes / New, select DXL Attribute and press Wizard).

Cool.  I used to program those myself.  Sounds like fun coding all those conveniences for the end user.
