Column Width in Sharepoint List
I have a modern site that has a column for state which is abbreviated i.e. IL, MT, FL but I cannot get the column width to decrease. I am using Sharepoint Online. Can anyone help me with decreasing the size of the column? Thank you!

It's not possible. I've been trying for ages. Vote at the site above to put an end to this.- Chloe1045Copper ContributorHas there been any progress since you posted? Seems like an absurd issue to have haha

Hi Tammy Bruns,
You can use JSON column formatting. You may want to decrease (rename) the column name width as well (manually). Example below:
Sample JSON code:
{
"$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/column-formatting.schema.json",
"elmType": "div",
"txtContent": "@currentField",
"style": {
"width": "50px"
}
}I hope this helps.

Norman Young Thank you but that does not allow me to move the column slider (Header) to decrease it. That does decrease the acutal column size but the the column visually stays the same. I would like to be able to move the slider (highlighted in picture) so that it decreases the column. Is there a JSON that would accomplish that?
- LTJ88Copper ContributorI have the same issue. did anyone solve this yet?
