Allow user to set column widths en masse. Ideally for each variable. For instance, I have sales and market share for each of ten years. If I am not good with the auto set width, rather than having to manually modify the width for each year, I should be able to either enter a width for the field OR manually change one and have the other years follow suit. Either would be helpful, rather than visually setting the widths and hoping I have them equal.

RE: Set Column Widths
Width of a column set up in centimeter (Matrix)
On the matrix visual, it would be nice if we could define the width of a column in centimeter.
Each column would have the width specified and if the « word wrap boutton » activated, it would display as many line as needed.

RE: Set Column Widths
Trying to display survey results that include open-ended text responses. The columns are many times wider than the screen and in order to resize them, I have to drag them one screen width at a time. This is such a pain and so unnecessary.
RE: Set Column Widths
Adjusting column width with numerical values would be so much way easier than using the classic "ruler + magnifying lens" combo
RE: Set Column Widths
I totally agree!! With no reference to the actual width of the columns, it is a big time wasting activity to try and get tight and uniform columns.
RE: Set Column Widths
It would be very useful in table and matrix visuals. Thank you.
RE: Set Column Widths
This would be a huge improvement to speed up formatting tables/matrices with a large number of columns.
RE: Set Column Widths
this is a really important and a basic feature. Please add it soon
RE: Set Column Widths
I really don't understand how this is not already available. To me this seems like something that should have been available right out of the gate and here we are years later still waiting for it.
RE: Set Column Widths
Agreed. Struggling without this basic feature!
