[CLOSED] Column Width
Does anyone know the formatting code to set the column width? I want my columns to all be set to one fixed width (ex 15 cm). Please let me know

Thank you
Ryan

That only works when the report is outputted to excel. I want the columns to be wider in the HTML view

I apologize for giving you a link to (in my opinion/has been verified) NON-maintained documentation that shouldn't exist as it stands. See below:

If you're in AppStudio and have the Report Canvas open, select the column you want to set the width for, click the Appearance tab and under the Style section between the justification buttons and the copy/paste/match style buttons, lies the column width button. This only effects the selected column. If you want to effect all columns, go to the Report tab instead, and under the Style section there, you'll find similar which effects the whole report.

After making modifications via the above methods, save and exit the Report Canvas, and then open up your .fex via the Open in Text Editor option to see the code settings.

Update: Not sure why, but the min and max setting options are grayed out. Might not be supported yet via the GUI. Look into the SQUEEZE attribute: see my next post.

Or better yet:

The current validity of this linked to documentation remains in question. Not sure how many versions it's been copied again and again over from w/o anyone checking whether it still holds true or not if such, but that is what we've been provided.
