What I need is to reopen popup without the need to automatically adjust the column width of the power table he first table is copied over and it will automatically reset the width of the columns.

Is this a question? Looking at your popup window, I'm guessing that your seeing the result of window caching. I don't see anything else that would be storing the user's column width preferences. ---

Whoops, didn't see the link. Only on first cup of coffee. I would personally turn off the auto-sizing, and set it once in the designer. And, maybe try setting the cache policy of the window to always. ---

I discovered the cause of the problem The key point is the Column Sizing attribute The empty Column Sizing needs to be opened again in the popup to remember the width of the last opening and editing ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/5/3/53dfd0357336d65debe33230fe993737cc9a023c.jpeg) ---

Can the default width still be set in designer and this state still be maintained 🥲
