Result Set Column Width Maximum number of characters that display in a column in the result set.
Important: Changing this setting affects the entire DevOps Plan website and can affect performance. The DevOps Plan Web application is optimized to request the minimum amount of data. If a query includes a long description field, only the number of characters that are specified by this option display.

  • If this value is greater than 100, you can perform a multirecord update on query-result-set pages larger than the standard result-set page.
  • If this value is less than 100, the multirecord update might be limited to a smaller page size than the result-set page size that is configured in the application user preferences.
