Resize columns and rows the way Excel does.

Drag any column border to resize it. Double-click to auto-fit to content. Tablesmit gives you precise layout control without touching a pixel value.

Benefits

Drag to resize

Hover over any column or row border. The cursor changes to a resize handle. Drag to the width or height you need — smooth, instant, 60fps.

Double-click to auto-fit

Double-click any column border to auto-fit the column width to the longest content in that column. One gesture — perfect width.

Resize rows too

Row height is also resizable by dragging the bottom border of any row. Use this for multi-line cell content or visual emphasis.

Precise constraints

Columns have a minimum width of 60px and a maximum of 600px. Rows have a minimum of 32px. No cell ever becomes unreadable.

How it works

1

Hover over a column border

Move the cursor to the right edge of any column header. The cursor changes to a horizontal resize indicator.

2

Drag to resize

Click and drag to the width you want. A vertical guide line shows the new position as you drag. The column updates when you release.

3

Or double-click to auto-fit

Double-click the column border to automatically set the width to match the widest content in that column.

Use cases

  • Widening a description column to avoid text truncation in exports
  • Narrowing ID or code columns that need minimal space
  • Auto-fitting all columns before PDF export for clean layout
