RT4 adjust column width(s)?

RT Users

Hi all,

I’m looking for a way to manually specify a column width in search
results. I’m running RT 4.0.5 at the moment.

I have a search which displays fields in one long row (which is what I
want). I don’t mind if most of the fields wrap text, but it hurts my
eyeballs when a date field wraps such as:

2012-13-
11

Poked around the list archives and the wiki, but didn’t see this
addressed. Any easy (or complicated) ways to force column widths?

In your search Format, append “/STYLE:width:12em” to the column, like so:

'__id__','__Subject__','__Due__/STYLE:width:12em','__Owner__'

Obviously adjust 12em to the size you want. Support may vary between
browsers for setting explicit widths on table cells.

Maybe this one also works for you:
‘id’,‘Subject’,‘Due/STYLE:white-space:nowrap’,‘Owner’
