Need feature improvement in tableview

Description of the limitation and why it is relevant to address

There is no way to clearly see the table view that has large number of columns. If I expand one column it will shrink the other column widths. It would be better if the table view is made to be able to expand the width pf the columns and the users can expand the columns without shrinking the other columns and there is a toggle bar at the bottom of the table view that allows the user to scroll left and right of the table so that they can easily view the entire table having a large number of columns.

It would be even better if there is a way to keep the width of the columns fixed in the code for each column. But for now the expandable table and the toggle bar would be very helpful.

I think this is relevant for the VIKTOR platform because it will be a very useful feature that will improve the user experience.

Submitter proposed design (optional)

An expandable table view with right left toggle bar.

Current workarounds

Thanks for this detailed feature request! The expandable table columns with horizontal scrolling would definitely improve the user experience for tables with many columns.

We haven’t planned to work on the table in upcoming few sprints, but we’ve noted your suggestion for future consideration.

Appreciate you taking the time to share this!

Please let me know when you start working on this.

An idea that would also improve the user experience with the table view:

When a user adjusts column widths with their mouse and then the page is refreshed, the widths revert to default.

It would be nice if the column widths remained according to the user’s latest adjustments.

It would be even better if there is a way to fix the width of the columns in the code so that each column will have its own fixed desired width.
