如何增加Enthought Canopy中ipython笔记本的单元格宽度？

Question

I'd like to increase the cell width in the the Enthought Canopy (v1.5.2) browser and it seems simply changing the custom.css is insufficient. Does anyone know how to do this?

I've tried this post which works on Anaconda but not on Enthought (which supplies its own lightweight browser).

Thanks!

Canopy provides two ways of running the IPython notebook. As you've observed, the notebook that runs inside the Canopy editor has some constraints (a trade-off for the convenience of Canopy GUI integration). As an alternative, you can run the full notebook in your standard browser: From the Canopy Tools menu, open a Canopy Command Prompt (or Canopy Terminal), then ipython notebook . This has the additional advantage that it can use the latest versions of IPython (after updating them), see this article .
