Data Explorer compressing columns horizontally
- EdgeDB Version: 2.0+88c1706
- OS Version: MacOS 12.0.1
The edgedb ui data explorer doesn't handle a table with lots of columns. It seems to compress each of them horizontally so they all fit on the screen. It would make a lot more sense if the fields were at least the width of the column title. Ideally it would be the width of the data inside it (e.g. a column with title id that has a uuid in would be better suited if you could see the full uuid by default.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Create a schema that has more than around 10 columns.
- Open in edgedb ui and try to view the record
- Everything will be compressed.
Example 1: A normal table

Example 2: An abstract record (or any table with 20/30 fields)

Some expand/collapse functionality on the vertical bars that separate the fields would be nice too. A click or double-click on a vertical bar would make the column expand to fit or collapse. Perhaps "expand all" and "collapse all" buttons as well somewhere above the column headers.
