Change the size of the filters on a dashboard

Is there a way to change the size of the filters on a dashboard?

One of our filters is used to look up specific user information but its width is so limited that you can barely fit very short email addresses in there (which makes it harder to spot typos).

Thanks in advance!

Hi @ChristophD
It would automatically expand the filter to the value. So either a bit of information is missing or you're not using latest release. Post "Diagnostic Info" from Admin > Troubleshooting.

We're using 0.41.4 but the change log for the two newer versions didn't seem to indicate any fixes related to this topic:

Maybe one extra piece of information: We have about 6 filters next to each other on that dashboard. Could that be a factor in the behaviour we're seeing?

@ChristophD This is what I'm seeing. It's three different types of filters - search, dropdown and plain text

Thanks for the screenshot, it's definitely not doing that for me. I'll update and then report back.
