Columns width resetting in data view

[JVP]

Hi, I can't find an answer to this. My data tables in Data view keeps defaulting to a really wide column width for those with alot of detail in. I try to shorten them and save but when I next reopen the file it doesn't save this and is back to being really wide.

It is very frustrating having to navigate the table like this as it takes alot of time to find things. Is there any way to have it save on the widths that I shortened them to?

HI @Ritaf1983 , this seems to only apply to the table visual, while my issue is with the Data View.

Hi @JVP 

I'm sorry I didn't understand right away.

In any case, there is no way to affect Data View.
As an alternative, you can use tooltips and have the user see long texts in floating windows in the table itself
or export it to Excel
