Hi! We are running Grafana ver. 8.0.3, and had a question regarding the column width for the table panel. Currently, the minimum table width we have observed, and from what we’ve read on [documentation](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/panels-visualizations/visualizations/table/#table-options), is 50px. Understandably, for most use cases going below 50px is unusable, but we have a unique table usecase that would greatly benefit from reducing the column width even further. Does anyone have any ideas on ways we can reduce the table column width, even if it involves some editing of the table panel source code or other plugins/modifications.

welcome to forum @mjohal3

you can look into `Dynamic Text` plugin wherein you can control the width.

Also highly recommend you upgrade grafana.
