TableView: Hor-Scrollbars not working / content clipped #5608

Description

@BerndK-Str

I used the UICatalog \TableView \ TableEditor - File \ OpenWideColumnExample
I switched the scrollbar visibility mode to Auto.

As the Description Colum has a wide content, the scrollbar should kick in and allows me to scroll but they are not visible.

If I collapse the window even smaller, the scrollbar shows up as soon as the space is too small to show all titles.

It should not validate the size of the titles, but the size of the contents. As it is now, there is no chance to see the full content of a column using the scrollbars!
However it is sometimes a nice behavior if the full content does not matter - the table tries to show all columns (at least with the header's size). However, I think we introduced the scrollbars to see the whole table and its content. If we want to clip content there are other options like Column maxwidth.

I have tested with version 2.4.7 and 2.4.17. When I initially contributed the TableView in early 2026, the behavior was different.
