If table.BestWidth = 0, there are two possibilities

1) All columns have width defined in pixels (i.e. at least one cell in each

column has width defined in pixels, and there are no cells with widths

defined in percents)

Table will have width calculated by widths of columns

2) If not, table will be resized on full window width.

So you cannot keep 50% width if table.BestWidth=0, you can keep only fixed

size.

Probably, future versions will have more smart calculation of table width.
