Entity list header
Via this property you customise the header in the entity list, when this field is empty the Name will be displayed in the header. When this field does contain a value it will be displayed in the header. This can be used, for example, to display a shorter text when the field name is relatively long.
Default column width

The maximum width an image may have while choosing the image. Note that changing this property has no effect on images already stored in the database.
