Table Cells Question

[Coffee]

Is there any way to split the cells like in the example? I highlighted the area. I want to recreate this table in AP.

Recreating this table is relatively easy, You can select multiple cells in a row, column, or both, then right mouse cilck and choose "merge cells". For the colors, you can select multiple cells again and in the toolbar choose fill and change the color.

You can also create a table style as in the following image for 2 alternating rows after the header, but you'll have to merge the cells of the header again.

You can also select a pre-formatted table, go to the assets and under a subcategory, click add from selection, then just drag it from there anytime you need it again. Check the afpub file and import the afassets file.

Is there a way to split cells in the latest version of Affinity Publisher? I just purchased and really need this function as I use it daily.

Thanks!

No, only an option to separate cells that were previously merged.  With Publisher at this time you need to take the opposite approach and work out in advance the "extra" cells that you would have split, then use merging to achieve a similar effect to what you would have otherwise done by splitting cells.

Not very convenient, but it is what we have to work with for now.
