can't change active_admin column width

Question

I am using the github version of active_Admin as can be seen from my gemfile:

gem 'activeadmin', github: 'activeadmin'

I am trying to change the column width of a column in an index table. According to the documentation found here, it should be done like this:

column :notes, min_width: "400px"
column :notes, max_width: "800px"

However, the code above is not working. The column is 100px. How do I get this to work?

Unfortunately max_width only exists on "pages" (i.e. register_page), and not on "resources" (i.e. register). Instead you can do this:

.col-<column_name> { max-width: 200px; }
