Column setting in Grid

Dear Datagrok team,

Thank you for always providing such thorough support. I have a question regarding column settings in Grid.
I found that I can rename columns and modify descriptions for tooltips through the Settings in the Context panel, shown below. However, after saving the project and reopening it, the rename and description information disappeared.

Is it possible to retain these setting configurations when saving the project? If there’s a correct way to do this, I would greatly appreciate if you could share it with me. For reference, the data source demog.csv is derived from demo data, so data-sync is turned ON. I’m not sure if this is relevant, but I’m mentioning it just in case.

Best regards,
Kosuke

Dear Kosuke,
Thank you for your message and continued engagement with Datagrok!

To properly rename a column and have the change saved, please use the column header’s context menu, as shown in the GIF:

Regarding the issue, it is indeed related to saving projects with data-sync on. We plan to address this issue in one of our upcoming platform releases. Here’s the tracking ticket:

Thank you for sharing a way to execute rename in the current version and also considering my question as an additional task.
Best,
