How to set max table row width when Table is scrollable X

If you are experiencing an issue please mention the full platform your issue applies to:

I have a com.codename1.ui.table.Table (AInventoryTable) of 13 columns that are AInventoryTable.setScrollableX(true);

Unfortunately Each column is much wider than necessary and therefore requires more user scrolling than I like.

Please see 2 attachments (PartTable_1.JPG is left view of row and PartTable_2.JPG is the right portion)

Each column constraint has been set to con.setWidthPercentage(percentages[column]);

However the total scrollable width is too great.

Is there a method to adjust this so the colums are not so padded with empty space?

That's odd. Do you override createCell or the constraint method?

Any other changes in the class?

I'm assuming these cells are editable.

Thanks for the hint.

                @Override
                protected Component createCell(Object value, final int row, final int column, boolean editable) {
                    if (row == -1) {
                        Component headercell = super.createCell(value, row, column, editable);
                        headercell = new TextArea((String) value);
                        ((TextArea)headercell).setColumns(5);
                        ((TextArea)headercell).setRows(1);

                        headercell.setEnabled(false);
                        headercell.setFlatten(false);
                        headercell.setUIID("CustComplaintsTableHeader");
                        return headercell;
                    }

I use TextArea as my header cell, so I can do multi line text, explicitly setting the colums solved the problem.

Thatns again

Regards.
