I do remember seeing that they were overhauling the new table reports. They do stick once I drag them, but:
1) There seems to be a minimum width that's wider than it used to be.
2) It does some strange truncating we didn't notice before.
3) We have lot of reports across a lot of tables across 2 apps. So this is going to be a long process to have to resize every column.
I'll put in a care ticket to let them know. The new ones definitely load faster, so that's a good thing.

On August 1 they started to roll out the new table report which is supposed to run faster. They are doing the carefully starting with Realms beginning with A or B, or C, or D. It may not look any different on the outside but underneath it has completely different engineering. I can't really replicate your bug but it could be as simple as that when they rolled out a new engineering of the report they were not able to retail your preferred column widths.
If you fix the column widths to your liking by dragging them, do they stick?
I suggest though that you put in a care ticket because perhaps they can prevent this happening to realms further down in the alphabet.

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.

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
