Datatables has resizeable feature. So you can do it with a bit of javascript. But there is not an API for that in plugin yet.
PowerTable will be rewriten, may be using solidtable as base. Web2py now has too many table/grid options and I think we can just extend the existing best ones. Powertable already has nested tables 'details' but allow only obe level. Using the new extracolumns feature in sqltable or solidtable we can achieve your tree like nested tables. A bit of jquery and this would be easy. I am not saying you dont have to use powertable, just that it is a little deprecated and can be very better with new features (web2py evolves too fast!) The only features that powertable has and other dont. is nested tables, by column filtering, edit in place, tooltips, ajax. Putting this 5 features in smartgrid and this will be the best option. http://zerp.ly/rochacbruno Em 29/08/2011 15:52, "Pierre Thibault" <[email protected]> escreveu: > Hello, > > I have a few question on the power table: > > - Can I make the columns re-sizable? > - Can I display a column hierarchically?

This is great work.
