Lens 2023.8.31525-latest introduced “Tables with resizable columns” since this update the UI looks very odd and spacing in columns is ridiculously huge resulting in table not fitting on screen (1920x) and texts inside not visible. Older versions had texts left aligned with column name and now there is like 1 finger space both left and right.

Sure, you can see how “zoomed” the new version looks the problem with spacing.

Btw as part of this thread, I would like to point out it’s very hard to read the pog log output/console (small pixelized font) and there is no way to customize this (😊

Thanks for quick response! We’re fixing the problem.

Also, to save up some space you can hide columns which not so important for your current view by using three-dots menu on the right.

We see the problem, working on a solution. The [AppImage download](https://api.k8slens.dev/binaries/latest.x86_64.AppImage) should be current, if you want to check the tables fixes right away.
