 * Hi Tobias,
 * I just created the first and new table with 3 columns I would like to have the
   same width for (each of the 3 columns the same width as the other 2). Preferably
   automatically so whichever browser will be used for viewing, it will look the
   same.
 * Unfortunately the left column is by far wider than the other 2, which does not
   look good at all.
 * Is there a CMS setting I can use to adjust it? Amateur, such CCS or html only
   with very detailed description of where to place it. 😉 thanks
 * Using 1.6.1. just installed on new website (but already running on other domains
   for years).
    Couldnt find the answer in documentation nor FAQ.

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * You can simply use CSS code inspired by [https://tablepress.org/faq/column-widths/](https://tablepress.org/faq/column-widths/)
   here, with percentage widths:
 *     ```
       .tablepress-id-123 .column-1,
       .tablepress-id-123 .column-2,
       .tablepress-id-123 .column-3 {
         width: 33%;
       }
       ```
   
 * Regards,
    Tobias
