Manually change the matrix columns width

I would have the possibility to manually decide the width for each column in a matrix. Usually, first column contains text and should be larger; following columns have few characters (usually just 1) and could be narrower instead of having the same width of the first column

Same issue here, even though the following columns can also be a bit too narrow and the column title can be broken in some cases. The column title might then not be very clear for the end user (see attached) column width and/or break line rules in Matrix fields

Struggling with the same thing, I'm leaving, maybe I can find another form software until this is fixed.

Lel Lelovsky I also have this problem with Tally's matrix questions. I'm using SurveySparrow currently, which has better flexibility with matrix questions. I must also leave Tally for the same reason (I'd hoped to transition from Surveysparrow). For now, you may want to give surveysparrow a try.
