Resizing rows and columns
The quickest way to change the size of a row or column is to drag the row or column boundary to the desired height or width. You can also resize a row or column by setting a specific row height or column width.
When setting a row height, preview the report to ensure that the results are what you want. The row height you specify is a fixed height. If the content cannot fit within the specified height, content is truncated.
