Problem

Creating a table in the Confluence Page editor and extending the width of a specific Column will result in different results whether the page is edited or viewed.

Environment

Reproduced in 7.19.7 LTS and 7.13.10 LTS

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a new Confluence Page
2. Use the storage format attached to this ticket to add such a new table to your Confluence Page
3. Extend the 3rd column so that all the header text is displayed in one single line in Edit Mode
4. Publish the Page

Expected Results

• The table width extension as displayed in Page Edit mode should match the Table displayed after the page is published/updated .

Actual Results

• The table format is not consistent between page Edit and View mode . As you can see the header title can be on multiple lines instead of 1.

Workaround

• Tweak the page content in edit mode until a satisfactory outcome is displayed whilst Viewing the page.
• If you require precise fixed column widths, you have the option to disable the impacting feature.

• • Log into Confluence administration on this direct URL https://<confluence-base-url>/admin/darkfeatures.action

• • Add in a line at the bottom confluence-table-enhancements.sticky-headers.disabled and press Submit

Remember to remove the confluence-table-enhancements.sticky-headers.disabled dark feature once this issue is resolved
