While working with the Schema view in Dataflow, the width of column "Name", which lists the name of the columns in the query, is fixed. Due to this it only shows initial about 19 characters of the column name. When there are multiple columns with commone first ~20 characters, it becomes difficult to know the right column and the only way to see full column name is to hover mouse pointer over the row with the column name.
Due to this the utility of the schema view is greatly reduced, as a simple task of correcting the Type takes a long time. One needs to hover over each column to see the full name and accordingly change the Type.
Please make the width of the column "Name" in Schema view adjustable, or make it enough to show at least 40 characters of the column name. This will enable users to quickly change the Type of required columns.

Agreed - I couldn't believe I couldn't change the column width.
