• The numbers entered stand for the percentage of the total width of the alarm list where the according column starts. So the "ID" column starts at 0% of the whole width of the alarm list, and the "Alarm text" starts at 6% of the whole width fo the list etc.
  The value 120 will disable the according column (in this example the "StateColour" and the "TimeOff").

As result, the alarm list will be drawn like the below attached screenshot:
