Feedback from Antoine Borensztejn on the new column-display behavior:

With the recent switch to a drag-and-drop column model, all annotation columns are shown by default and the only way to organize them is to drag or right-click a single column to "Move to start"/"Move to end" (Header.tsx). Users report this is frustrating when there are many columns:

  • Most of the time users only need to see a few columns, but must reorganize by dragging across a long list.
  • To view a specific annotation (e.g. local file path), users have to scroll through every column to find it, then move it to the front.
  • The horizontal scrollbar becomes tiny/nearly invisible with many columns, and mouse users must shift-scroll or use that scrollbar.
  • The column search functionality from the old system is missed.
