Display settings for multi size monitors

Hi, I have a report which is a just a single table (with many columns) that expands the whole page, like an Excel table. This is viewed on Windows desktops in the browser and the desktops have different size monitors.

 

I'm try to configure it so for wider monitors it will show more table columns, but when I stretch out the browser it zooms the text and doesn't show more columns. I've tried different combinations of Page View settings and Canvas Settings, but nothing works.

 

I saw there is a Responsive setting but it's greyed out on the Table visual.

 

Any tip would be most appreciated.

I found the solution to this. As per @amitchandak advice, set the canvas width, but also have your Page View set to Actual Size. Drag your table out as wide as the canvas. Then play around with column & values text size, column wrapping and auto-size width, until it's right.

Hi @amitchandak , when I do that it's ok for larger monitors, but on smaller monitors it makes the font size tiny, to fit all the columns in. Is there a setting to lock the font to one size. 

 

Smaller monitors should have the horitizonal scrollbar to see all columns, and larger monitors shouldn't need to have a horitizonal scrollbar.

 

I hope that makes sense.

@ozo909 , You should be able to choose a custom page size when you click on empty space on page and then then have a wider page
