Good evening

The green text in the 3rd row in 3rd column is text what I want to change. The problem is with size - the text is on the right side and on the left side is a free space. I want to use all space as the red text in the 1st row in the 3rd column (picture below). How to do it?

Thanks for help.

    The green text is different because it's in an itemize, so the issue is with itemize indenting, not longtable as I see - is that right? This question may offer a solution http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/91124/itemize-removing-natural-indent – Dai Bowen Sep 01 '16 at 17:23
  • You may also like to take a look at how to build an MWE while it's great that you've included one, there are a lot of packages irrelevant to this problem which you could remove for conciseness (graphicx, mathtools,fullpage etc.). – Dai Bowen Sep 01 '16 at 17:32

    add the option wide=0pt to itemize. Why do you replace the dendash with a hyphen dash? – Bernard Sep 01 '16 at 17:56

The answer of A. Ellett in Positioning item to the left inside Table set leftmargin in itemize. I tried 1em and 0.5em for your problem and it looked fine. (0.5em gives better use of space. 1em alignes the text better with not-itemized cells in the rest of the column.)
