Table set to Autofit to Contents doesn't display correctly in RH10

[glundeen]

Upgraded from RH9 to RH10 and all my tables are set to Autofit to Contents.  After upgrading, the first column of every table is huge/wide, therefore, it's very difficult to work with the remaining columns because they're so condensed.  I've been waiting for an answer to this issue for over 2 months from RH support so thought I'd see if anyone else is experiencing the same problem and if so, if they found a resolution.

Do you mean that you have your tables set to a defined width but the columns within them autosize depending on the content in them? If that is the case I would expect RH to work this way if the content of one cell was large enough to squash the rest of the columns. Can you tell us a bit more about how you are sizing your tables? It is good practice to use a percentage value.

No, they are not set to a defined width.  I right-click on the table and select Autofit to Contents and the first column is huge with plenty of space still available in the first column.  It didn't work/look this way in RH9.  See screenshot below.

However, it looks just fine when I generate the output.

I am seeing the same in a new table created from one of the default tables that ships with RoboHelp. Looks like a bug.

If you use Fit to Window, it works. The choice is to live with the bug or switch to another option.

You should report the bug.
