Details

The method lets you find out which attributes are specified for a certain column.

For example, if you have the following configuration:

columns:[
    { id:"rank",    editor:"text",      header:"",              width:50},
    { id:"title",   editor:"text",      header:"Film title",    width:200},
    { id:"votes",   editor:"text",      header:"Votes",         width:100}
]

calling getColumnConfig("title") will return the object as in:

{
    id:"title",
    editor:"text",
    header:[{
        text:"Film title"
    }],
    width:200
}

Note that the method works for hidden columns as well.

Setting Column Config

You can also change column configuration using the getColumnConfig() method:

grid.getColumnConfig("year").width = 200;
grid.refreshColumns();
