Tables customization

Explore how to customize your view to tailor it to your priorities and goals

PerfectScale allows you to customize tables through the platform, helping you tailor each view to the data you care about most. Instead of working with a fixed table layout, you can choose which columns to show, how they are ordered, and how much space each column uses. This makes it easier to scan large data sets, reduce visual noise, optimize screen space, and work more efficiently.

Table customization is available across all the views:

  • Overview

  • PodFit

  • InfraFit

  • Automation

  • Alerts

To customize your view, use the Customize Table menu on the relevant page.

Show or hide columns

You can seamlessly hide specific columns from the table. This helps remove information that is not relevant to your workflow and frees up screen space. For example, if your account does not use labels on the Clusters page, you can hide the Labels column to keep the table cleaner and easier to scan.

To do so, simply uncheck irrelevant columns in the Customize Table menu.

Change column order

You can also reorder columns from the Customize Table to create a layout that better matches how you work. Move the most important information closer to the beginning of the table, so it is easier to access the information.

Once you’re in the Customize Table menu, simply drag and drop columns to arrange them in the desired order.

Pin columns

Pin columns to keep them visible while scrolling horizontally across wide tables. Pinned columns remain fixed on the left side of the table, making it easier to keep key information in view while reviewing additional data.

  • Columns can be reordered separately within pinned and unpinned areas.

  • Grouped columns cannot be pinned or reordered.

  • You can pin up to 3 columns at a time. Once the limit is reached, an info tooltip will appear.

Pin the desired column(s) by clicking the pin button next to the column name in the Customize Table menu.

Resize columns

Resize columns to better fit your screen and improve readability, especially when content exceeds column width. Hover over truncated text to view the full value in a tooltip.

The Fit to Screen button automatically adjusts column widths so the table fills the available space without horizontal scrolling.

Reset customization

When using a Reset option, you can choose which settings to reset:

  • Column visibility

  • Column order

  • Pinned columns

  • Column widths

This gives you control over what changes are reverted without resetting the entire table layout.

Keyboard navigation

You can navigate tables using your keyboard. Use the arrow keys to move through table rows and across wide tables:

  • Up / Down to move between rows.

  • Left / Right to move horizontally when the table has horizontal scrolling.
