For the life of me, I can’t adjust the width of the data sheet columns to see things better. What am I doing wrong? Is it not possible to do? ---

In the Glide data editor or in the Google sheet? ---

In Glide. No issue on GS. ---

I have not found the ability to expand the columns, but most columns display the full characters in the field with the exception of row ID or relation codes, but if you click into one field there is the ability to scroll horizontally to see entire set of characters if you need to do so. ---

I’ve glad it’s not just me then. I have so many extensions to block cookies and pop-ups that half my apps or sites won’t load at all. You are right about certain things expanding to see the hidden content. I can see all relational labels but when I try to look at text I don’t have the same access. Not a big deal since I should work from GS first and foremost, but it just seemed odd to run into something so unexpected. ![Shared with CloudApp](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/c/c7fbb73b9d8c4cd407df98d9daeef6f70c11e9f0.png) ---

@Les_Henderson Were you able to solve the problem, here even if i ender the column width ratio, nothing happens, columns are still displayed with even width. btw. does this relate to anything to the Glide-Data-Grid ([https://grid.glideapps.com/](https://grid.glideapps.com/)) in anyways? ---

> [@Fadi\_Malek](#): > > btw. does this relate to anything to the Glide-Data-Grid Just note that the Glide Data Grid you linked to has no direct connection to Glide apps. The grid you linked to is an open source code project for people to use outside of Glide apps. To answer your question though, this thread refers to viewing data in the data editor, which has had several improvements in the 4 years since this thread. ---

Definitely @Jeff_Hager, it is clear that the Glide Data Grid is to be used outside Glide apps. On the other hand, the “Data Grid” component column “Width Ratio” is not working as of today inside the Glide App, hopefully someone can attend to this matter since it is hindering us from using the “Data Grid” component as long as it is not behaving as designed I guess! ---
