Zero result and still seeing leftWrapper bordered about fixedcolumns

Was this a bug reported before? What you show is what I expected to happen.

I made the raw second table that look like more natural without leftWrapper bordered.
Updated the jsfiddle

In my own project, I added some statements in dataTables.fixedColumns.js line 1177 in order to determine leftWrapper shown or not.

Finally, I hope this suggestion could be helpful for this project :)

This if statement is what is causing that cell to appear. It was added as others wanted it to appear so there isn't a disconnect between when data is shown and not.

If you don't want it add:

tr.DTFC_NoData {
  visibility: hidden;
}

to the CSS and that will do it.
