TablePress Extension: DataTables FixedHeader

I have just started using TablePress Extension: DataTables FixedHeader which works fine on my websites with the Hello Theme but noticed when on a Generatepress Theme site the heading expands wider than the webpage size. I switched to Hello to test and page is ok.
I had below response from Tobias
I see what you mean, and I have seen this issue before. Unfortunately, I have not yet found a definite cause for this and therefore can't offer a solution at this time :-(
My feeling is that something in the theme's HTML or CSS structure is throwing off the DataTables FixedHeader script's ability to properly determine the widths of the table columns.
Hi there,
I can't see how this would be a theme issue.
From what I can tell, all the HTML and CSS for that element are coming from the plugin itself.
And it's setting the width to a fixed 1110px using inline styles:

I would recommend checking with their support team to see how that can be changed.
