Column width in matrix

[jeff@rxperts.net]

Is there a trick to adjusting the column widths independently in a matrix. I can adjust the width of the entire matrix and the columns get distrubuted evenly. However, I tried both Appearance:Width and Column Options:Column Width for a given column and the commands didn't seem to have any effect.

Thanks, Jeff

Jeff,

This should work properly, though one thing to keep in mind is how web browsers render HTML tables. If a table column width is specified to be smaller than the content it contains, a web browser will expand the column to fit the contents of the column. For example, if the width of a column is set as 1 pixel, but that column contains "abcdefg" the column will be expanded by the web browser to however many pixels are necessary to accomodate "abcdefg".

One thing to try is to set the width of the matrix as a whole, then set the individual column widths.

Hello,

I have a similar problem.
I tried various combinations of px for the whole matrix and columns - still can not have the same width.
Please see attached example.

Thank you.
