Hi,
I created a dynamic view for the first time today, but can't seem to get the text on column headers to wrap in the view; I didn't see any option for adjusting the column width either. Any ideas on how to do this?
Thanks!
Hi Rick_Bailey,
As you've found, there isn't a way to wrap text within the header in the display of Dynamic View (in Settings this is called the View Display). There also currently isn't a way to adjust the width of those columns, but I've passed your feedback along to our Product Team to consider for future releases. You can also submit your own Product Enhancement Request using the link on the right.
Though it's not the Header, in the Details Panel view (the view that comes up after you click on a row), you do have the option of expanding text/number field itself. Default setting is single line, but you could expand that to be a multi-line field. This allows the text of the field at least to wrap in that view.
If you have any further questions about Dynamic View, feel free to submit a ticket to our Support Team here: https://help.smartsheet.com/contact

This may seem super basic, but I work in tandem with 4 different teams and need to construct a calendar/timeline for all of these separate departments. What is the easiest way to gather the information? Some teams use smartsheet, some use excel, but none have the same format and none really "talk" with each other - hence…
I have a sheet that I am using to collect COI from faculty, but our faculty often are involved in multiple activities that often leads to them inputting several COI entries. I've managed to create a duplicate checker to see which faculty members have entered their COI twice, but that doesn't necessarily solve my issue of…
I have a number of automation that send notification emails to clients. These are automations that have worked successfully for years, and suddenly they stop. I am a recipient on many of these notification emails, and I realize that I have stopped receiving these notifications as well as of Jan. 26, 2026. It's a…
