I noticed that you saw Mike's comment on
forum.appian.com/.../f-57809
. As mentioned, this has been reported to our Product Team.
You can try using SAIL paging grids:
forum.appian.com/.../SAIL_Components
"Each column’s width is determined by the length of the longest value in that column. If the sum of those widths surpasses the allotted space, a horizontal scroll bar displays for users to view the remaining data. The allotted space for the grid depends on its placement in a one-column layout or two-column layout within the SAIL."

SAIL components can only be used in Tempo. In Appian 7.4, you can also create SAIL forms.

Hi Patty,
In the task form (Appian 7.2), We have 2 paging grids each with 50+ columns
1) The column values in the paging grid are type cast to text
2) The column headers have substantially bigger header names
Query:
1) Is it that the width of the column is based on the length of the largest value of the column?
2) Does padleft (adding spaces to the left) / padright (adding spaces to the right) given to the the column label in paging grid
eg:
padleft(<column Name>, 200)
Similar to this we also tried having the value appended with spaces in a seperate script task and saving it into a pv value and displaying the value in paging grid, but that too didn't work
3) We tried appending to the column name
Please let us know is there any work around to have the column width large enough to show the column names readable.
