Data View - Column Width
Is it possible to fix the column width in the data view table in Power Bi. I have a column with a lot of text in and the column automatically fixes the width of it for the text as opposed to wrap text in Excel.
I know you can manually change the width by dragging the column but next time I open it, it reverts to the maximum width again

Hi mwild ,
Unfortunately, it is not possible to set the column width automatically, you can only adjust it manually.

Great suggestion MWild, this is very frustraing
It is not possible to manually change the width either when columns are wider than the viewspace. Its a bug not a suggested improvement but not sure how to raise these?
We need to raise this as a bug but not sure how?
