FAQ

Why didn’t the column width change after I dragged?

  1. Make sure you are in table view, not another view type.
  2. Check that you pressed the right edge of the field header, not the middle of the header.
  3. Try again by pressing and holding first, then dragging left or right before releasing.

Can I enter an exact numeric width on iOS?

  1. On iOS, column width is currently adjusted by dragging.
  2. A direct input box for an exact numeric width is not available here.
  3. If you need a more precise result, make several small drag adjustments.

Will the adjusted column width stay saved?

  1. After you drag and release in table view, the new width takes effect immediately.
  2. The updated result is saved for the current view automatically.
  3. The next time you open the same view, check whether the column still uses the saved width.
