Until remember column widths is fixed, I tried editing citationembedlist.py and changing \_column\_names “Page” from 100 to 350. This isn’t having any effect when I run gramps. Is there somewhere else I need to change?

I usually flush the cache folder for the directory where I change a `.py` file. It gets rebuilt the next time Gramps runs.

Found I had to delete citation spacing in gramps.ini to see the change.
