Can I hide the "Other relations" column in a matrix?

This article explains the purpose of the Other relations column in a matrix, its behavior, and how to hide it when not needed.

Why the "Other relations" column exists

  • A matrix only shows relationships that are part of its defined scope.

  • Sometimes, additional relationships exist that are not part of the definition.

  • These extra relationships appear in the Other relations column so they are not lost from view.


Characteristics of the "Other relations" column

  • You can delete relationships listed in this column directly from the matrix.

  • You cannot create new relationships here.

  • The column is never included in publications.

  • If you apply a filter in the matrix menu (Filter > Filled columns or Filter > Filled columns and rows), the Other relations column will not be displayed, unless relationships are present.


Can it be hidden?

  • The column cannot be disabled entirely.

  • However, using the Filter options mentioned above is the best way to hide it when you do not need to see those relationships.
