Column Width Auto-Resize Missing (in Statistics View)

In KNIME 5.5 I work a lot with the Statistics view, especially with the last “10 most common values” section. In the new UI this area is very small on my screen, and I cannot find any way to automatically resize the column width (for example via double‑click, like in Excel). Resizing only works if you are not in detached full screen (which makes sense for large tables).

I received the same feedback from participants in two Siemens KNIME trainings I recently delivered, so it seems to affect multiple users. Is there already an option or workaround that I have missed, or is this a known limitation / existing feature request? Thank you!

Hello @mbloechle ,

yes, this limitation is known (internal reference NXT-3243). We plan to improve the convenience of working with the table and reduce inconsistencies between the output, statistics, and preview tables.

We did some investigations into how to distribute space more reasonably, however the topic is tricky, so we do not have a result yet that we are happy to implement.

Thank you for your feedback,

nan
