# Tables measure series

In this section, let's look at the measure customization options specific to tables.

### 1. Show or hide measures

You can hide a measure by unselecting the checkbox alongside it. To render hidden measures again, you just need to re-select the checkbox.

Let's hide the absolute variances.

### 2. Setting custom widths

You can set custom widths for each measure in table mode. The width changes dynamically as you key in the values.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The scaling of row-level charts will be impacted when we use custom widths.
{% endhint %}

Click on the reset icon to restore the default width settings.

### 3. Variance

You can define the variance calculation for tables. The variance is calculated as AC - PY or AC - PL by default. You can flip the variance calculation to PL - AC or PY - AC.

### 4. Reordering measures

You can also re-order columns from this window. A hand icon appears when you hover over the menu icon adjacent to each column - you can drag the column to the desired position.
