How do I adjust (resize) the column width in my reports?

Sometimes it is because of your column heading. For that, you can easily customize the column heading.

Thanks for ur quick response

We need to truncate two columns.

Thanks

If it is a text field then, create a formula-text field and use the below formula.

Left([Your Text Field], 60)

Now, show this field in the report instead of using the original one.

It is a Multi- line text  and we have taken a new text formula and  applied the formula

Left([multiline feild], 60)

But its not working .


Thanks

Hi Sandeep,

I am able to do that. Can you please post some more information like before trim and after the trim. How you want to truncate the field.



Thanks,

Hello Gaurav,

I do have similar kind of issue, I need a column to shrink to certain width because of user visibility, Can you please help me on this?

I have changed column type (Text Multi line -> formula Rich text)  But when am trying to shrink using formula that am not able figure it out.

My question is, As you mentioned in previous solution to use this "Left([Your Text Field], 60)" how do i integrate to this particular column.

Thank you,
Abhi.

Hi Abhi,

Welcome to the Quick Base Community.

You don't have to change your existing field. You need to create a new formula text field and use the above-mentioned formula and use that formula field in place of your multi-line field on the report.

Gaurav,

You need to create a new formula text field and use the above-mentioned formula and use that formula field in place of your multi-line field on the report. <quesiton> Is this new formula text field is a column or needed to be added to the existing field?

Thanks

Hi Abhi,

It is a new formula field which you will add as a column.
