@thadguidry please look in this matter.

@chetan-v Sorry, I don't understand. Do you want me to try to reproduce this on Windows with Chrome? What explicitly do you mean by "look into this matter"?

Yes I want this
And want you to suggest me some solution

Just a side note about language, it is more polite if you avoid things like "I want you to". Instead, you can use "would like", "could you"… Your requests for help should not read like orders :)

[thadguidry]

@wetneb it's fine, I didn't take it as an order. I automatically imply "Please, " before every user request within OpenRefine community context :-)

[chetan-v]

I am sorry for this. I apologise mr thad.
Actually I am not a native speaker(I always Grammer mistakes).
But I am fully agree with @wetneb.
When I translated the phrase then I realize its not a right way to talk with seniors.
Next time I am very take care of it.
regards,
chetan

It's not a problem at all, I just thought I would let you know because it can be useful in other contexts.

@chetan-v The expected outcome should actually be an error message like:
ERROR: the number of columns is not the same between all your selected files to import.

Additional improvement message ...
"OpenRefine can only import multiple files into a single project if all selected files have the same number of columns."
to add before this text:

Oh, I thought it is a guessing problem.
can I add this line

"OpenRefine can only import multiple files into a single project if all selected files have the same number of columns."

But for now, it should show changed on your branch, correct?

@chetan-v That's a small Chrome issue (I think) because of the way some properties are set in the .less files. So I'd open a new issue to make this more cross-browser compatible.

It does not happen in Firefox for me as shown:

But in Chrome, yes, you can clearly see the issue with the <table id="create-project-ui-source-selection-layout"> overlapping and it's children:
