Can I change the width of a column in a report?

[Mat10]

This seems like a simple question, but I couldn't find an answer anywhere.

I have a very simple list report which I want to use on a dashboard to display Project Name, and Description.

I have two formatting issues:

1) The two columns in the report are spread evenly across the width of the browser. I would like Project Name to be shorter, say 20% of the screen, and Description to take up the rest of the space.
2) Description is a string field and the list only displays the first 40 characters of the description. How do I get it to display the full text?

Thanks.

Hello @Mat10 , It's an excellent question, similar to the one I asked 2 months ago (Configure report column size - ServiceNow Community). Unfortunately, I have received any expected answer. I hope you will be luckier.

We never figured out a way to do that.  Whenever we have wanted to do that, we had to make a custom portal.  I have had some luck with using the publish report feature (sharing menu).  It still doesn't let you customize the column width, but that view of the report is usually presented with column widths that more closely match what I would have chosen if I had the option.

Did anyone ever figure out how to do this?  Setting a column width in a dashboard sounds like the most obvious and simple thing to do...

Are these simple requests not possibilities?
