Tables
Marathon’s tables are very flexible for changes regarding their look. You can select which columns you want to see, in what order they will be seen, their width and how they shall be sorted. The settings are saved for future logins.
Click on the grey box in the right end of the column heading line or click with the right mouse button in the table. A selection window opens where you can select and deselect columns. Click OK.
If you want to move the columns in another order, drag and drop the column heading to the place you wish, Marathon moves the underlying columns so that they won’t get over each other. Pull the column borders to adjust the column width.
You can select how to sort the column contents. When you select a column, an arrow appears next to the heading. Click on the arrow to change its position. Arrow up means that the biggest values are shown first and arrow down that the smallest values are shown on top.
