Is there a possibility to adjust the column width in a table panel? I have 4 columns which should all have the same width (25%). Unfortunately they all have a different size.

Any update on that? It’s 2020, setting width in pixels _only_ for various display types w/ different DPI is silly nowadays %(

Seems it will be supported in v7.6 (see [Table field options | Grafana Labs](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/next/panels/visualizations/table/table-field-options/))

As a temporary work around you might want to look at dynamic text plugin where you have more control
