2686341 - The "Resize columns to fit content" option for table does not work as expected in SAP Analytics Cloud

Symptom

 The "Resize columns to fit content" option for table does not work as expected in SAP Analytics Cloud

Environment

  • SAP Analytics Cloud 2018.15.1 (SAC)

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Logon to SAP Analytics Cloud.
  2. Open or create a story with table. 
  3. Adjust each clolumn's width, make sure the width of each column is smaller than the text in the column.
  4. Select the whole table, then select "Resize columns to fit content" option.
    => Note that the column width is auto resized to fit content as expected.
  5. Now make one or two column's width wider.
  6. Select the whole table, then select "Resize columns to fit content" option.
    => Note that all the columns' width is resized to the content except the last column, seems that the total width of the table is not changed, so the last column's width is much wider than expected.

Cause

This behavior is currently by design. For a responsive table currently the last column gets the full width to fill up the whole table width when resizing to fit content. When changing the table width the column widths are changing proportional. This leads to the behavior that the last column remains larger.

Developer team are aware of that and will try to find a better solution in the future.

Resolution

Workaround : Manually adjust the last columns width.
