# minWidth

The table column’s minimum width, in points.

## Declaration

```swift
var minWidth: CGFloat { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The default value of this property is 10.0. The table column width can’t be less than the value of this property, whether the column is resized by the user or programmatically. If the table column’s current width is less than the value of this property, the width is set to the value of this property.
