Column width changes when pinning a matrix to my dashboard

Hi all you experts,

I hav an annoying problem.

I created a matrix visual, with a year and month as rows, and the numbers of the days as column. A simple counts is used as values.

In the report it looks ok 

When I pin it to my dashboard, the colum width is increased and the days nolonger fit inside the visual 

I tried its with both automatic column width and manual column width

Please advice

I am so sorry,

The reply by Xiaoxin_Sheng has been marked as a solution.

I am afraid its is not,

It is a temporary work around, but not a solution to the issue

Hi @HeroPost,

I can reproduce your issue. It seems like "tile"of matrix can't auto re-size to original size like other charts, you can use "Pin Live Page" function to work thogh this issue.

It seems to be a bug as manual sizing should give you constant column width.

 

My trick is to disable auto-sizing first, then adjust each column. For some reason if you simply disable auto-sizing, the column width is still not fixed. Not sure whether it works for you.

 

Good luck
