Mobile column width #1433

Open Antonialock opened 5 years ago

hi

I’m trying to browse our data on a mobile device (iPhone), I’ve tried using both chrome and safari.

I can’t work out how to make the categories wider so the data is very hard (impossible) to browse

( in addition to being able to drag and change the col width It might also be nice to be able to pre-specify the starting width of certain columns so that data is displayed as ‘nicely and sensibly’ as possible to users at the point of entry - is that possible? )

(For us the ‘track label ‘ column is the most important one so it would be good if we could make it wider by default )

Technically this issue arises on desktop too, probably just exageratted on mobile :)

It would be interesting if you could "side scroll" the faceted columns if I am imagining correctly

It's not as much of an issue on a desktop since you can resize (drag and drop) the width of each column.

I don't think "side-scrolling" would be a user-friendly solution - you want to be able to efficiently scan through a list of tracks and tick the ones you are interested in.

Being able to preset the width of a column + allowing its resizing (like on a desktop) would be great.
