It would be nice to be able to size the columns in a list of actions, i.e. the "Ignore Failure" column and status columns can take up valuable space at times. I know you can hide these columns, but its nice to have them visible - just optionally less visible please

We have never been able to get the columns to resize in a satisfying manner with the treelist control we use (which has no equal in all other respects), although to be honest we haven’t looked at in a while. I’ll make a note to look at this again soon, but can’t promise a result (I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve tried to come up with something over the years).

It's not a big deal at all, so I wouldn't waste any brain cycles on it - I'm sure you have a stack of more important tasks kicking around..
