Column width resize in modern list
I am using modern list, and it is truly great, very well designed. Anyway, I am using 6~7 columns, and "title" column's width is unnecessarily long, thus i have to scroll right to see entire colu...

This problem is truly unacceptable....and makes moder list unusable. :(
For example, I have a a short primary title column label (just a few letters). My items also have very few letters but the default width of that column is 5X too wide. :( Furthermore, the column width is not saved for viewers.
This problem has been around since day one... Please FIX asap.
A work around. If you choose multiple lines of text, then choose 1 the column shrinks. Not perfect but better. The idea of having to use java, css or any code just to change a column width is ridiculous. Please sort this so ordinary non developer types can change widths easily. If sharepoint is truly going to appeal to the massess it must get easier to do the basics!
I've had the same problem with column width in modern lists since day 1. However, I saw today that "Column Formatting" would be rolling out to Office 365 customers next month. I don't know if it will let me control the width of the first column, but I'm going to give it a try when it rolls out to my tenant. https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Column-formatting-1f927342-2bed-4745-b727-ff8b7ff96b22?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US
If it works I'll report back to this thread.
end of 2018 and you can't still do any table formatting using standard UI on Sharepoint online. not speaking about creating 'responsive table'. What's wrong? was thinking responsive pages are the standard for many years now. am I wrong?
