Trying to follow the tutorial here: [https://www.inductiveuniversity.com/videos/column-container/8.0](https://www.inductiveuniversity.com/videos/column-container/8.0) When I create a column view and click on the root container, I don’t see an option to change the column size. It’s a simple step to follow and I’ve done it multiple times now with no result. Not sure if this is a versioning issue. I’m running v8.0.2. Has anyone else seen this? ---

Ah, if you’re referring to the count of columns (`props.columns`), that property was removed in 8.0.1. There is no longer a way to modify the column count. The property was removed because odd values resulted in undesirable behaviors for some components. Inductive University is aware that the video is out-of-date, but updating the video is still on their to-do list. ---

Makes sense. I was worried that I had a bad install. Apparently my designer doesn’t _maximize_ for some reason. When I click on the maximize button, it just resizes to full screen but doesn’t actually maximize. I thought that was weird and figured maybe my installation is bad. Have you noticed the designer maximize issue before? ---

I have not, but quirks like that are usually environment-specific. Could you provide the specifics of your environment so that I could attempt to replicate the issue? (OS w/ version, Ignition build number) Also, how many monitors are you using? We’ve noticed some odd behaviors in workspaces which uses multiple monitors, especially if the workstation is a laptop which is regularly disconnected and re-connected. ---

Thanks. I’ll attempt to replicate the issue when I can find some time today.
