      Current behavior
      In Confluence Cloud, Jira filter/table (Jira Issues) macros:

      • Force the table to fit within the page width.
      • Wrap or compress content when there are many columns.
      • Do not show a horizontal scrollbar, so users cannot scroll right to see all fields (e.g. Comments).

      This is platform behavior, not a config, permission, or browser issue.

      Expected behavior

      • When the table has more columns than available width, the macro should:
        • Allow horizontal scrolling.
        • Show a horizontal scrollbar (or equivalent responsive behavior).
        • Let users see all selected Jira fields in a single table view.

      Why it matters

      • Customers use Jira macros in Confluence as reporting and operational dashboards.
      • They need full column visibility (including tail columns like Comments/Notes) for daily reviews and decision‑making.
      • Today they must:
        • Remove or split columns across multiple macros, or
        • Open the same filter directly in Jira, causing extra steps and context switching.

      Request

      Add support for horizontal scrolling in Jira filter/table (Jira Issues) macros in Confluence Cloud so users can reliably see all columns without truncation or forced wrapping.
