Proportional Width (pWidth)

The Proportional Width property sets the width of a column in proportion to other columns of the table.

When you specify a value in the Proportional Width property, you are specifying its width in proportion to other columns in the same table. For example, consider a table with three columns: columns A, B and C. Column A has a proportional width setting of 1, column B has a proportional width of 2, and column C has a proportional width of 3. This means that column B is two times as wide as column A, and column C is three times as wide as column A.

Note:

If you specify both Proportional Width and Fix Width, the Fix Width value is used.

Type: Ratio.

Important:

Enter numeric values only; do not specify units of measure such as in or cm. These units will be translated into point measurements and cause unexpected results.

This property does not have a default value.

You can find the Proportional Width property in the Table category of the Properties view.
