This is super handy for our shared finance sheet where I need to keep salary info visible to me but hidden from the rest of the team. The header-name selection worked exactly as expected.
selecting columns by header name instead of letter is a really thoughtful touch, especially since collaborators can't accidentally unhide the wrong range.
Love how it uses header names instead of clunky cell ranges, makes protecting sensitive columns in shared finance sheets way less painful. The one-click reset is a smart safety net too.
This solves a real headache, especially when sharing payroll or grades sheets. One thing that would make it way more useful for me: let me set a custom password to actually unlock hidden columns, since anyone with edit access can still remove protections by default. A passphrase gate would make it feel truly secure.
Love that you tied column selection to header names instead of clunky letter ranges. Makes protecting payroll or HR sheets feel way less error-prone for anyone managing sensitive rows in a hurry.
Love that it works off header names instead of column letters, which is way more intuitive when you're juggling multiple sheets at once. The one-click reset is a thoughtful touch for anyone who has nervously hidden the wrong column.
