Adjustable table column widths

Post by SimpleSi » Aug 6th, '17, 15:00

I use lists in Scratch for writing debugging logs and I' trying to use tables in GP for the same purpose
(Please let me know if a better way of logging stuff exists)

But the table column width isn't adjustable - could it be made so (or even just dividing the table area equally between columns would help)

Just found debugging category and console print in developer mode so that's obviously the best way to display a log but I'll still stick with column widths request please :)

Agreed, adjustable column widths in tables would be generally useful.

In terms of logging, I usually use the terminal for my own debugging but that's not even an option with the Mac version because there's no console (unless you do some black magic to launch GP from a terminal window) and it's not a very user-friendly option even when the terminal is available. Using a table is a clever way to do logging in GP since a Table can handle hundreds of thousands of log entries and scrolling through a table is really fast.

I'll look into making column widths adjustable (or at least make them resize based on the window width).
