That I could drag the column width:

Bear 2 does it’s best to guess the best column width for you but it’s not always optimal. Can we get a drag column edge to resize feature anytime?

thanks

Hello,

markdown tables do not come with something that allows choosing the column size. Theoretically, we can add some metadata we are currently using for link previews and folding but come with a lot of issues.

Can you please show me a case where the automatic column width is not optimal? Maybe we can tweak the algorithm.

Best Regards.

Nothing specific, just a feeling things would be clearer if I had some control over widths. But yeah, I hadn’t considered the limitations Markdown imposes.

Also, I’d imagine things will be getting better when we have some control over line width in the editor.

I too would like to see the ability to resize columns in tables. I am new to Bear and loving it so far, but this particular feature would be great. I do not have any specific examples, but I know I used it a lot in OneNote and Evernote, especially when I have a lot of columns and want to resize the table to view specific columns for a period of time before I resize them back out. Any thoughts on adding this feature? Again new to Bear and loving the tool so far! Thanks in advance for the consideration.
