Question

Column width on report automatically expanding


Forum|alt.badge.img+11
As of this morning:
When I open a table report, the column widths are automatically expanding?  I need my column widths to stay as I set them (narrow)..we do screen shots and don't want wide columns.  On a Mac desktop, using Chrome...
Thank you

Have noticed the exact same thing. Looking forward to explanation. We've changed nothing in the app. The column widths are just quite a bit wider for all users, even for fields not designated as "display without wrapping". Does not have anything to do with the contents of the cells/fields.

Same as OP, I'm using a Mac desktop and Chrome, but also noticed on a Windows desktop using Chrome.

Response from technical support on this issue (I am a "C")

This is a side affect of the new performance enhancements our development team is rolling out for new table reports. There is not a way to do this natively with Quickbase at this time. While these new fixed column widths are currently considered an intentional change, we are always looking for ways to improve our platform and encourage feedback. If you want to voice your opinion on this subject then we encourage you to do so via the blue "Give feedback" button on the left edge of the "My apps" page. Our Product Management team reviews every piece of feedback offered, and that feedback weighs heavily on the future of Quick Base.

I hope this information has been helpful.  Please let me know if you have any further questions!
