Columns not resizable

Hi

 

I have had an issue for a while now about resizing columns. Say some text columns have a lot of information. I couldn't figure out how to wrap text, or resize the column. Columns do not stay the size after resizing. The jump back to be the length of the longest text cell... Would it not be able to have columns stay the size you want? Especially for the online dashboards and for presentations it has been an issue..

 

Thanks

Hi nadim,

 

This one of bug in Power BI service.

 

If you resize the table column in desktop version, but in online it will take as default, 

 

The only solution right now u have to resize the size in clound and save it again.

 

for wrap text also one of bug.

Is there a way to disable sorting in the table?

Column resizing has been most annoying for me. Even with auto size turned off, its very difficult to set column widths with the resizer <-- ,--> on the header. Is there a plan to fix this..?
