Change column width of the pivot table in Qlik Sense

I want to see a lot of axis values at once but it's automatically adjusted so you have to scroll to see it.
I'd like to adjust the width of the column as desired.

Any news on that? I've read posts from 2017 asking for this feature. It's a basic functionality that should have been implemented from the beginning tbh.

This level of control is absolutely required to make proper use of the screen real estate.  At least if it automatically sizes all columns to fit properly or most of the columns is okay, but by default a lot of wasted space and not a good automatic sizing of columns.

Hard to believe this is still an unresolved issue. Basic functionality available in QlikView for years! 

The 'P&L pivot' chart gives some flexibility for column width but has other limitations. 


@Patric_Nordstrom, are we getting close to a resolution?

Agreed - P&L pivot made progress, but only being able to have 2 dimensions isn't enough (especially if you have to waste one for grand total row...

My company use qlikview before, now we're migrating to qliksense. There are some really fancy features in qliksense, but some of the basic ones are missing. This problem is kept bothering the developers and users in my company, I really hope the qliksense team can solve this problem.
