Answer 1

Given the name of your Kendo UI Grid in AngularJS, in your case $scope.options

you can hide each column programmatically passing the column index, like that:

$scope.options.columns[3].hidden = true;

Answer 2

If you add

columnMenu = true,

Before the columns declaration this should give you the column menu which should enable the show and hide columns options.
