Table cell widths

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Is the design of the table API that SetTableColumnWidth values should be the total width of the column's cells including the padding?

I'm still learning this stuff and my test program is calculating the maximum width of each column by obtaining the TextWidth of each cell value. I then use that maximum value to call SetTableColumnWidth. Some columns come out with adequate width but others do not. So I cannot tell if my whole approach is wrong or if the approach is correct but I'm doing something else wrong.

Any advice?
