Hello WelterM,

Can you please send a screenshot for your Table/Matrix and the property pane settings?

I'm assuming you are using the new Table/Matrix. Right?

If you are unsure, please create a new Table/Matrix visual, fill it with data, and try the word wrapping settings.

 

Also, note that when you toggle the option to "ON", it will not have effect until you reduce the column width.

Hello, RamySaroufim;

 

You hit the nail on the head there. I finally figured out that I had to reduce the header width. I tried to reduce the column width, in the body of the column, but that wasn't possible. I finally found how to reduce the header width. And that worked. I wish there was a way to center align the header. :smileyfrustrated:

    WelterM, Glad it worked!

     

    More good news: Actually there is a way to center align the header!

    You can either do it for all headers, under "Column headers"

     

    Or you can do it for a specific column, under "Field formatting"
