It would be great if it's possible to define the column's width by numbers (% or px). It's a very time-consuming exercise to match it manually if you have similar columns in the same module or similar modules on a page:

    I have found that if you point the NUX Grid to a saved view, the default column width can be adjusted from the classic. After selecting View -> Edit -> Module Views -> Select View -> Refresh, then the column sizing takes on the point setting from the classic. I note that the text size in the NUX is slightly larger than the sizing in the Classic, so a 45 pt sizing in the Classic might work great, but I need to set it to 60 pt so that the numbers are not cut-off when viewing in the NUX.

    As a page builder, it would be great to have in the New UX a Colums Settings menu similar to the one we have in the model building environment, so when creating a board with multiple tables, it is easier to make the column width match between the tables by inputting a specific px width.

    I’ll know this is successful when I am able to set precisely with a px value the column width of a table.

    Oh, it's great that it's in a roadmap.

    I'm looking forward to having this functionality in NUX. Trying to make columns equal by dragging their borders is a nightmare and a lot of harm to vision. Of course we can make a saved view and use it instead of custom view but custom view is so convenient and it's such a pity not to use it.

    Hope that road to this functionality won't be long and managing column width in NUX will become as comfortable as in 'old model building experience'.
