Is there a way to make a dynamic data viewer where the size of each row dynamically adjusts to its data? Like for example if the 1st row is only 2 lines of text and the 2nd row is 5 lines? I am making a custom layout ---

You can set the height of the layout container to “fit contents” and it will adjust the height depending on the amount of text. ---

it doesn’t seem to be working in the data viewer. let me explain again - I want the size of each row in the custom layout of my data viewer to dynamically “fit contents” Some rows might take up 5 lines of text, some others may take up 1, some may take up 3… I don’t want to make each row in my custom layout to be able to contain 10 lines because then each row will have a lot of extra space, especially if there is only 1 line of text. ---

> [@jake-cohen](#): > > it doesn’t seem to be working in the data viewer I’m assuming you tried what I suggested. Can you post a link to a project so I can see how you set it up? I understand what you’re wanting to do and I’m pretty sure my advice will work. ---

Unfortunately I cannot since my school doesn’t allow me to share this app I am making for them. Would u be able to make a quick little thing that works in your own test project and share the link. If not possible I might be able to privately share it with you via discord ---
