> I trying to align the column heading to align to row correctly, ... The best thing to do here is to replace the `_` characters with spaces. - Easy way: Type them into `columns.x.header.title` for each column `x`. - Script way: read the headers, replace '\_' with ' ' and script the `columns.x.header.title`. > ... also need to know how to give the spacing between column? Create a style class, `paddingLR` (left-right). Set `padding-left : 5px` `padding-right : 5px` On each column select the `paddingLR` from the header styles dropdown. `columns.x.header.style.classes : paddingLR` ---

Thank you for your valuable input. Actually I tired the same as you instruted. But none is changing . Kindly check. ![talele](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/a/4/a4661aefbcca90a8b0d0de0fb4d48eab5128e044.png) For your info, table data is coming from a tag. Not able to resize the columns also even though I have enabled the resizable - True. ---

Yes, `column.x.field` must be defined. I never found a global columns property and always set each column individually. ---
