Greetings,

I have created a Confluence page and have then inserted a section for 'Jira Work items' which displays all live Jira info as a list which is really helpful.

The problem I have is that the data inside the list is justified as align middle left as a default and the only changes I can make to this is to (un)wrap the text. This makes it hard for users to read the page when there is a lot of text presented.

Is is possible to justify the text in any of the columns to align top left?

Many thanks...

Hi @David Kaczmarczyk 

You can only wrap/unwrap the text of a column by clicking on the column header.

I don't really understand how align top vs middle could improve readability.

Are you using Description as a column?
