It would be nice to have the name of the table columns in embedded table to be static when there are multiple pages to scroll through. This would serve two purpose. First to have the title always shown as you scroll down the list and allow the column widths to be adjusted see all of a long text string for example. To adjust the column width currently, I would need to scroll all the way up back to the top adjust the width and then scroll back down to the record. Multiple times, realize it was still not wide enough to show the entire text string and then having to repeat this process of column width adjustment.

Hey @Attaboy -

Great idea, I can totally see why you would want to _freeze_ the header row of the interactive table.

I just wrote a feature request for this one.

This has been [added in R238](https://community.tulip.co/t/release-238-october-2022/); there are additional new requests for [more functionality related to frozen column and row headers](https://community.tulip.co/t/improve-table-view-behavior-fixed-columns/6845).
