Description Thomas Singer CLA 2011-07-28 06:02:34 EDT 
Build Identifier: 3.7.0.v3735b

Please take a look at the sample code and screenshots of the Bug 353293: though pack is invoked after setting the table input, the first checkbox column is far too wide (where as the second column is correctly spaced). When double clicking the separator between the columns the checkbox column will become smaller, but not as small as expected. IIRC, I did not have this problem on Windows XP (can't verify now).

Reproducible: Always

How to otherwise detect the desired and correct column width?

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.

If the bug is still relevant, please remove the "stalebug" whiteboard tag.
