How do I set Scaffolding table width?

[Heth Siemer]

I am using Service Rocket Scaffolding for weekly status reports. It works phenomenally, however, the scaffolding tables do not respect fixed or responsive widths and just do their own thing. I would like to know a way to force these tables to all be 100% of the container width.

Table Plus does NOT work. That's what I tried first.

Hi Heth,

You should be able to change the width of the Table Data macro by inserting values into the Width parameter. If you're unable to do so, can you try checking whether is there any other 3rd party add-ons which are overriding Scaffolding's parameter by going into Safe Mode?

Thank you.

Not sure how me AND my team missed that! Thanks!!

Alternatively, you can use the Confluence Source Editor plugin to edit the XML.

You'll see the widths of the table columns specified as percentages of the layout sections they are enclosed in.  Simply set the widths of each column to the relative % you would like them to span.

This approach is handy as it also applies to the PDF layout when you export a page to PDF.

We disabled source editor for the normal user for reasons I'm not privy to. :/
