Column groups should be displayed #93

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
The Gridworks data model currently supports Column groups, which provide a tree 
structure relationship between columns.  The XmlImporter currently makes use of 
this, but the data is never seen by the user.

The Column group model should be displayed in the UI.  This could be in a 
dialog, similar to the protograph (see Issue 76 for a proposal to merge these).

A further feature would be to allow the column groups to be edited.  This would 
allow users to create tree relationships for data which was originally imported 
from non-tree data (csv, tsv etc.), or fix trees imported from xml, json etc...

Column groups are currently displayed during project editing.  Is this proposal 
for them to be displayed during the import preview or does the current display 
suffice?
