Editing Tables

John Kennedy

We are just diving into the new tables feature and have run into a couple of issues.

First, is there a way to change the width of the columns? We want to have columns of various widths, not all the same.

Second, how can I change font size in all data cells at on?  When we try this using the Table Styles, it creates a new style (and table), but the existing table remains the same.

any help is appreciated.

To adjust the width of a column:

1. Click inside a cell which is in the column that you would like to adjust.
2. You will notice four grips appear, one on each border of the selected cell.
3. Click on a grip and drag it to your desired width, note that this same method can be used to adjust the height of a row

To change the height or other properties of the text in the table for a particular cell style, I was able to do so using the Table Styles.  I am running V11.4.1, as soon as I made the the change in the editor pane of the particular item, and clicked out of the text box the change was made in the drawing.  A new style was not created for me, nor was a new table.  Maybe it is the regen auto setting that needs to be turned on to allow your tables to update?

Thanks Scott, I will give it a try.
