855476501,MDU6SXNzdWU4NTU0NzY1MDE=,1298,improve table horizontal scroll experience,192568,open,0,,,4,2021-04-12T01:55:16Z,2022-08-30T21:11:49Z,,CONTRIBUTOR,,"Wide tables aren't a huge problem if you know to click and drag right. But it's not at all obvious to do that. (it also tends to blue-select any content as it's dragging.) Depending on column widths, public users might entirely miss all the columns to the right. 

There is a scrollbar at the bottom of the table, but I'm displaying ALL my records because it's the only way for datasette-vega to make accurate charts. So that bottom scrollbar is likely to be missed. I wonder if some sort of javascript-y mouseover to an arrow might help, similar to those seen in image carousels. Ah: here's a perfect example:

1. Visit http://google.com
2. Search for: animals endangered
3. Note the 'g-right-button' (in the code) that looks like a right-facing caret in a circle. 
4. Click on that and the carousel scrolls right (and 'g-left-button' appears on the left).

Might be tricky to do that on a table, rather than a one-row carousel, but it's worth experimenting with.

Another option is just to put the scrollbars at the top of the table, too. 

Meantime, I'm trying to build a button like the ""View/hide all columns on https://salaries.news.baltimoresun.com/salaries-be494cf/2019+Maryland+state+salaries
Might be nice to have that available by default, with settings in the metadata showing which are on by default.

(I saw some other closed issues related to horizontal scrolling, and admit I don't entirely understand them. For instance, the animated gif at https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/998#issuecomment-714117534 confuses me. )

> If your SQLite installation provides the json1 extension (you can check using /-/versions) Datasette will automatically detect columns that contain JSON arrays...

When I check -/versions I see two sections relevant to json1:
```
        ""extensions"": {
            ""json1"": null
        },
        ""compile_options"": [
            ...
            ""ENABLE_JSON1"",
```
        
   The ENABLE_JSON1 makes me think json1 is likely available. But the  `""json1"": null` made me think it wasn't available (because of the `null`). It would help if the documentation provided clarity about how to know if json1 is installed. It would also be helpful if the `/-/versions` information signalled somehow that that is to be appended to the hostname or domain name (or whatever you want to call it, or simply show it, using `example.com/-/versions` instead of `/-/versions`. Likewise on that last point, for https://docs.datasette.io/en/stable/introspection.html#introspection , at least at some point on that page detailing where those introspection endpoints go. (Sometimes documentation can be so abbreviated that it's hard for new users to figure out what's going on.)
