Hi @tgoedeke,
I agree that these are very valid points. Most views should be responsive in the way that they automatically fit to the screen width - except for the table view, where this is hard to realize. Could you name the other views for which the sideways scrolling is an issue?
Positioning of the scroll bars and fixing column headers:
Regarding a huge table view (given that you’ve already cleaned out irrelevant columns, resorted the table so that the most relevant columns are at the front, show only relevant data, there is not a more graphical way of visualizing the raw data, made use of the search and sort functionality):
- The only thing on how to bring up the bottom scroll bar I know of is to show less rows per page - this would also give you column headers that are always visible. This is of course at the cost of more pagination and as you said not always ideal.
- If you hold down shift and use the scroll wheel, you can scroll sideways - maybe that’s already a relieve?
- You could adjust each cell to save some space with custom css styling to fit more content on screen.
- If you know JavaScript it might be worth it to write a custom view yourself with the Generic JavaScript Node.
- Would it make sense to switch tools and let the consumers download the table as an excel file? You could use the Continental Nodes to nicely format the file.
Other than that, the issue with the scroll bar is known and there will be a new version of the table view.
Hiding the Navigation bar:
I’ve observed as well that people will just leave the tab without clicking the close button (including myself). If you share an embed-link to ta single page DataApp, the navigation bar won’t be visible. It will turn up if there are multiple pages however, because you could want to go back to the previous page.
Hope that helps! Kind Regards,
Lukas
