Column formatting
How do you prevent data from 'hashing' over when a field is reduced in size after pressing the best fit button on the Column Definition screen (note that before the best fit button is pressed, this doesn't happen)?

RE: Column formatting
Hi Brendan
Thank you for your question. I'll do a little investigating for you. Oddly the reverse behaviour should take place ie values that are partially exposed should be hashed to prevent the user misreading them. Values should only be fully displayed when a column is wide enough to show the whole value. I'll let you know what I find out.
Kind regards,
Andrew

RE: Column formatting
Hi Brendan
I haven't been able to find an answer to this. It looks like the software is designed to show the ### symbols. I suspect that the fact the display didn't show ### originally is an error.
If I find anything else out about this I'll let you know.
Kind regards,
Andrew

MS Project tip:Autofit column width – Project (all versions)At the top of the columns where each column name is located (Task Name, Duration, etc.), hover over the vertical column line which you want to move. |
