Appreciate the response -- Matti Paukkonen - that works for me on my machine (and in that one broswer), but it's not working in a different browser or for my other users.

Best,

I got it working with different browsers on my machine (Edge Chromium/Chrome/Firefox). I'll try this one out with my colleague tomorrow.

  This works also with my colleague.
  
  In list I just save view with the same name after changing column width.
  
  List view web part also shows it correctly.

    Can you please attempt this again where you drag, save the view and have a different user/browser/session test to see that your changes are shown for everyone?
    
    I cannot get this to work and would like to know if there's another way to do it.
