Why don’t I see my entire table in the note window? If a table extends beyond the width of a note, you will see a horizontal scrollbar at the bottom of the table. Drag along the scrollbar to see the table contents. The scrollbar allows you to keep all table formatting, including column sizes, without having to squeeze everything into the width of your note. You can easily scroll horizontally by scrolling sideways on your mouse (Mac mouse), swiping left or right with two fingers (Mac trackpad), or holding the Shift key on your keyboard while scrolling with your mouse (Windows). If you prefer to eliminate the horizontal scrolling altogether, select all the columns in the table, hover over a cell, click the table menu button (arrow), then click Match Note Width.
