Modifying tables

So, now that you know how tables are added to a drawing, let's move on to modifying a table and adding text to it. Select the table you made in the previous example and you will now notice the blue multi-function grips. You can click and drag these grips to change the size of different features of your table, as shown in Figure 7.6:

Try changing the size of the table you have created using these grips. The table size can be changed even for tables that were made with specific row and column height width options.

Press the Esc key to get rid of all selections or commands and then click once inside any of the table cells. You will notice that the cell is highlighted, and you will also get a Table Cell tab, which has options related to changing table cell settings, as shown in Figure 7.7:

When you double-click on a table cell, you will get the Text Editor tab, and this allows you to add text inside a table cell, as shown in Figure 7.8:

You will also notice that this text is multiline text with formatting options available on the Text Editor tab. The default text style will be used here, but you can still modify text properties using the Text Editor tab.
