# Column Resizing

Drag column edges and have the widths actually move

## What this does

You want users to drag the edge of a column to resize it. This covers wiring up that handle, choosing when the width updates, and handling pointer or touch input. Reach for it when the state changes on drag but nothing on screen moves, or when a large table gets sluggish while resizing.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Let people drag a column wider or narrower
- Support resizing by touch as well as mouse
- Fix resizing that lags on a big table

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## About Column Resizing

This covers wiring up columnResizingFeature and header.getResizeHandler, choosing a resize mode and direction, and handling pointer or touch events, along with updating widths through CSS variables.

Read it when resize state changes but the widths don't follow, or when large tables resize slowly.

## Questions

### Is Column Resizing safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Column Resizing and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit d9cca007c015, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/column-resizing.
