  • Custom Column Width : Enter the number of pixels in the text box on the right side. The column width range is [2, +∞), the pixel unit is generally an integer, so the input width should be integer.

Note

It is a global setting, which is effective for all the attribute tables.

Highlight Objects

After associating an attribute table with a map, you can check it to highlight all objects corresponding with the selected column on the map. If the data is very large or you associate an attribute table with a map, highlighting the objects is not good for the operation efficiency.

When associating an attribute table with a map, the map window won’t highlight objects by default after selecting a whole column. You should right-click on the column and click Highlight Objects. This function doesn’t apply to big data.
