Oh, so that’s the Data Grid component. I was under the assumption that you were inside the data editor in the builder. I guess I didn’t realize that the Data Grid did the same thing.

It’s technically not a bug, but I suppose it could be a feature request. It just happens that you have such a large column as your first column. These are some suggestions:

- Change the order of your columns so a smaller column is first.
- Turn off Row Markers for the grid so the row number goes away and gives you a little extra space.
- Add your own Row Number to your table and display that as your first column. (Second example here: [How do I create an auto-incrementing row number with Glide Tables?](https://community.glideapps.com/t/how-do-i-create-an-auto-incrementing-row-number-with-glide-tables/39572))
