Is het possible to only show the first two columns on a part of the page so the table isn’t stretched for the whole width?

Hi Kenny,

When using the # table structure, the table will always be stretched across the whole width.

The only way to avoid is, is by making use of the table structure without the # sign. That will work fine.

More info on different table structures can be found here: [CASE: different table structures](https://community.silverfin.com/t/case-different-table-structures/1529).

If this would only need to be applied in PDF export, you can of course make smart use if `ic` tags so the table is not spread over the whole width in export.

Hope this answers your question!

Kind regards,  
Robin
