Top justify long text in an object table?

We have a few Long Text columns in an object table. When the text gets too long, it looks like WS center justifies the string. Is it possible to top justify the string instead? We’d like to be able to see the start of the string in the table cell as opposed to the middle.

This is not currently possible. You may want to set the “Number of lines to display per row” config in the “Display & Formatting” section to a higher value.

Are there any other good workarounds? Have a user who would love(/kind of needs) this feature, and can’t just make the spreadsheet rows infinitely tall.

Ok update on this!

It looks like this center justification only happens when the user makes edits to the column (we color the column when this happens…maybe that’s related?).

No user edits → column is top-justified (lovely!)
User edits → column is center-justified

Any thoughts? I’m going to see if the strings themselves somehow get formatted/written to Ontology differently to see if I can fix it on my end.
