Assuming your talking about having the header text run, lets say, on the left edge of the table, no, that is not possible to do.

Hi,

```
My issue is that the table header text is too long.
What are my option to display the entire header text to the operator?

```

thanks

The two options that you have are

1. Change the font size

2. Change the table size to accommodate the header

Or, maybe for a third option, lose the header and put a label above the table and use html to wrap the text and have it make two rows in the label field.
