Serif Since v1 Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 Unless I am missing something, it seems the only way to create a new table is to draw one. The problem is, as the table gets larger, new rows and columns are added. But if I want a table that is physically larger but with not so many rows and tables, I have to go back and delete the unwanted ones after creating the table. For example, if I need a new table that is, say, 3 columns and 6 rows, but I want the table to be 7.5 inches wide, I am not able to draw it as desired. Instead, as I increase the drawing width to 7.5 inches, it creates 6 columns automatically. One alternative is the way it's done in MS Word: you have a choice of drawing a table or creating one via a pop-up with the desired number of rows and columns. However it fits best into the APu interface, please add this feature. Thanks! Quote

Instead, as I increase the drawing width to 7.5 inches, it creates 6 columns automatically. Just drag out a table with 3 columns and 6 rows then size it in the Transform panel but putting 7.5 inches in the W (width) field. Or drag out a table with 3 columns and 6 rows, release the mouse button and then grab the right-hand middle handle on the table and drag right to the size you want Edited December 20, 2019 by carl123 Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.
