    Report Module Enhancement - Horizontal scrolling

    There is one feature that would make the Reporting module more usable for the List reports. That is horizontal scrolling, so same as with Grid reports. This could be in /#Report/show/ Results View. Now users always need to export to Excel to see all columns properly.

    Thanks for considering, Timo

    Hi Timo,

    in case this issue is still relevant for you:
    I've ran into the same problem trying to display a report with many(!) columns.
    As a solution I developed a little extension which implements a horizontal scrollbar together with an extra config-field for a report, where the width of that table can be set as a percentage.
    A small disclaimer though: the extension does "break" when the refresh or sorting feature in the report result-view gets used, in the sense that the scrollbar disappears and the table gets squished to its size to fit the screen. More infos I discussed here: https://forum.espocrm.com/forum/deve...iew#post125539

    If you want I could provide the said extension to you

    edit: I've managed to find a solution that also works with the refresh and sorting feature. It does require some configuration, but the end result is, that i can set a fix width (in percent) for certain reports by referencing them by name and if this width is bigger than 100% then a scrollbar will appear to make the rest of the width visible.

      I actually asked Claude Code to make a new dashboard dashlet type which embeds Metabase charts and dashboards. These are authenticated with Java Web Token.
