Confluence Database Usage

Ray Wallace

We have started to use Confluence Linked Databases and are finding some issues with the outcomes we're observing.

One of the issues is that two columns that are next to one another don't align properly due to the vertical font sizes of the display text.

Column 1: ENTRY LINK  (Hyperlinked)

Column 2: ENTRY DETAILS  (Standard Text)

Is it possible to align these or potentially have some sort of gridline option ?

This issue continues when more than one ENTRY DETALS column is present. 

Using the above example:

Column 1: ENTRY LINK  (Hyperlinked)

Column 2: ENTRY DETAILS  (Standard Text)

Column 3: ENTRY DETAILS  (Standard Text)

It is very difficult to visually identify which ENTRY DETAILS text belong the relevant rows.

@Ray Wallace I think I understand what you're saying but it would be extra helpful with a screengrab image.

I have linked databases, but all of my ENTRY DETAILS are either smartlinks, labels, or user @mentions, so I'm not seeing any alignment issues.

The Details field does not have the same height as the Location Link field... It is hard for the eye to work out what relates to what.  Maybe a gridline ?
