I didn't even consider that I had to scroll all the way to the end of the page to find it. Just chipping in to say that this confused me, and I didn't even find the scroll bar until after I saw this issue. I don't know what the right answer is, but IMO the UI should suggest to the user that there is a way to view the data that's hidden to the right.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",855476501, https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1298#issuecomment-823102978,https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1298,823102978,MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDgyMzEwMjk3OA==,154364,2021-04-20T08:51:23Z,2021-04-20T08:51:23Z,NONE,"2. Max height would still let you scroll the page to underneath the facets to the table, but would mean the table would never take up more than your window size, so the horizontal scrollbar would be visible as soon as the table took up the size of the window. 3. Yes, this wouldn't be for mobile :) It'd be desktop-only styling. On mobile you can scroll much more easily with touch, anyway. In your case, perhaps better would be the whole top half would be facets, bottom left quadrant chart, bottom right table. Depends upon the particular use case, as you say.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",855476501, https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1298#issuecomment-823064725,https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1298,823064725,MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDgyMzA2NDcyNQ==,154364,2021-04-20T07:57:14Z,2021-04-20T07:57:14Z,NONE,"My suggestions, originally made on twitter, but might be better here now: 1. Could have a CSS shadow (one of the comments on https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44793453/how-do-i-add-a-top-and-bottom-shadow-while-scrolling-but-only-when-needed is a codepen for horizontal instead of vertical); 2. Could give the table a max-height (either the window or work out the available space) so that it is both vertically/horizontally scrollable and you don't have to scroll to the bottom in order to see this; 3. On a desktop browser, what I think I'd want is an absolute grid to work with - left query/filters, TR chart (or map), BR table. No problem with scrolling then. Here is a mockup I made when this was about the map plugin: ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/154364/115358389-82c47e00-a1b5-11eb-8a63-0ca14fd23d32.png) ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/154364/115358454-97087b00-a1b5-11eb-9501-cf884ae72d7c.png) ","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",855476501,
