    Grid Column Sizing

    If you set column widths for a grid using the % option and the values exceed 100, the columns after 100 get squished really small. So if a grid has 3 columns and I set them each to 50% the first 2 would show at just under 50% and the last one would be squished.

    In classic it would treat the percentages as a proportion... I'm not really sure which way I prefer. I can see the argument for both. I just wanted to throw it out there in case its not intentional.

    Hi Matt,

    If you check the box for Fixed Column Layout under the general settings for your grid in the screen designer, the column widths will display porportionally based on the values entered as they would have in Method:Classic. This will allow you to toggle between the two, so if you do end up deciding which you prefer, you can set it accordingly. :)

    Hope this helps.
