Hello Srihari,

Generally speaking, the Column virtualization is a bit different than the Row Virtualization. While they both strive to improve the Grid performance this is achieved with different approaches. With the Virtual scrolling, small chunks of data are retrieved from the data source while the user scrolls. With the Column virtualization, on the other hand, all data is retrieved and performance optimization is achieved by rendering only the columns for the current Grid viewport.

As per the current Column virtualization design, we are rendering a couple more columns for the current viewport that are not visible until the user scrolls. So, we can expose a parameter that will control the number of these columns and thus you can cover your desired scenario - set a higher number for the invisible rendered columns, so the user will not see empty columns.

I tweaked the title a bit to be more specific and I also added some clarifications for the feature in the Admin edit of your post.

I updated the status of the thread to "Unplanned" which indicates this is a valid request, not scheduled for implementation yet. I also added a vote on your behalf to increase its popularity as we are prioritizing the feature requests implementation based on the community interest and demand. As you are the creator of the post, you are subscribed and will receive email notifications on status updates.
