Change the width of a list results page.

Where can I find instructions on how to change the width of columns in a list view?

Thanks,

Hello Anna, you maybe need to add a custom template, as far i know you can change the size of columns in form, but not on list, if you make you own template you can assignit to your list in the like you can find more information

I think you can just add the appropriate CSS to your element's (column) list settings:

So something like: column-width:100px;

If that doesn't work, then a custom template will be needed.

Thanks everyone. I'll give these suggestions a try and post back on what worked.

Just...

width: 100px;

... or ...

width: 20%;

... in the heading and column CSS should do it. The 'column-width' attribute suggested by suggested by rackem, while valid, wouldn't work in some common browsers, like any IE version prior to 10.

Also, just as something worth remembering when adding that styling, remember that it is inserted as a style="foo:bar;" and NOT as attributes on the table row (tr) tag itself. So you can't use HTML table specific attributes, only generic CSS styling.

Hi,

I finally got the width fixed using the width: 100px; suggested by Hugh. I want to thank everyone who offered solutions to this.

Thanks,
