Group by header in table is doesn't display full text in the header cell

  1. My goal: Display headers properly whilst using tables group by feature
  2. Issue: If the text in the header is too large, the viewable text does not expand properly for the column that is being used for the group by.
  3. Steps I've taken to troubleshoot: Checked between our theme and the default theme in Retool and the issue is present on both
  4. Additional info:

I think we've run into something like this as well. That is, the group-by column data is only as wide as the actual column itself, even tho the group-by header is the width of the table-component. The header cell could be 100% of the width, even tho the supporting column in the detail is only, say, 20% of the width.

Probably better to demonstrate visually:

The instructor "fullname" is wrapping in the group-by header, even tho it doesn't need to. The group-by column width doesn't need to be tied to the detail-column width.

Hi @Daniel_Fleuranvil,

You might want to try adjusting the Table component's appearance under the Advanced options—that could help.

Hi @WidleStudioLLP , This doesn't resolve my issue, though it may resolve @trillich 's. My issue is that the height of the header of the column that is being used to make a group by is not being expanded properly. That setting only affects the width of headers.

Hi @Daniel_Fleuranvil,

Apologies for the confusion earlier—there was a misunderstanding on my part while reviewing the issue. Upon closer inspection, it does appear to be a legitimate bug or possibly a glitch related to the current version of Retool.
