Set the width of tables dynamically #17

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
The width of the columns is set to a fixed value, which often wastes a lot
of space.

Could you adjust this size to a minmum according to the content of the columns?

Thanks

+1 for this. Numeric and date fields are several times larger than they need to 
be.

I've also noticed a related issue: on long text fields, the text is truncated 
to 66
characters (weird number) with [...] after it. However, this is rarely visible,
because the column width is too small for those fields.

Am I right in thinking the problem occurs because of the table header? It looks 
like
it's not part of the data table itself, meaning you can't rely on auto column 
widths.
Not sure if there is a clear fix for that, aside from always using one table.

This is a simple change that would _greatly_ increase productivity. Right now I 
have
to scroll horizontally on most tables which takes a lot of time (while in 
phpMyAdmin
most tables are fully visible).

Apart from this I really love sql-buddy!
