 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * From what I can see, you are using the “Horizontal Scrolling” feature for a table
   that is inside a tab. Unfortunately, that is not possible for technical reasons(
   the widths of the elements can not be calculated properly on initialization).
 * Please uncheck the “Horizontal Scrolling” checkbox on the table’s “Edit” screen.
   If you want to keep horizontal scrolling, you can use the `scroll` mode of the
   TablePress Extension from [https://tablepress.org/extensions/responsive-tables/](https://tablepress.org/extensions/responsive-tables/)
   as a replacement (it works differently and does not have this limitation).
 * Regards,
    Tobias
