Matrix Column Width: "Distribute evenly" or set numerically?

I know I can switch of auto-resize for my column widths in my matrix. Also, I know I can manually resize my columns by eyeball so they look the same width. But is there a way to do this automatically? Either numerically or something that says "distribute columns evenly" ?

 

As always, thank you.

...just here looking for a solution, as manually sizing more than 200 columns got old after a couple of dozen. 😞

@michellepace unfortunately you cannot do it numerically, it has to be set manually. May be you want to post this as an idea on ideas forum or vote existing idea (if exists)
