    Description

      Tested:

      On current 6.2.2-SNAPSHOT

      Problem main:

      Using the defintion app has a big downside: the default width of the 'title' column.

      It opens very narrow (orange), but for example 'is decorated' das way too much space (yellow).

      The problem is, that one will almost certainly browse down defintion trees in the title column. But as its very narrow, you must always make it manually wider. Thats ok, until you have to refresh the app... its small again, and this is really annoying while working with it during development.

      Problem minor:

      value 'expandRatio' is ignored, one can use (via decorators) only minimumWidth & maximumWidth

      This is pretty static as screen resolutions vary, expandRatio would be much better as its dynamic. Event better would be being capable of defining a % of the total width.

      Solution:

      Set good width.
      Here what I plugged in via decorator:

      subApps:
        overview:
          workbench:
            contentViews:
              views:
                columns:
                  title:
                    minimumWidth: 500
                    maximumWidth: 600
                  value:
                    minimumWidth: 400
                    maximumWidth: 500
                  type:
                    maximumWidth: 160
                  decorated:
                    maximumWidth: 100
                  severity:
                    maximumWidth: 160
