help needed - topic tables.


Recommended Posts

Hello all,

maybe it was already the subject, I don't know, maybe you also met with it...
table header, several columns divided horizontally,
in one cell the content is set to Rotate 270 degrees.

I attach two screenshots
1. in the first there is this column from the cell where the content has a given Rotation and there I can not set the height of the marked cells / row ABC !!!!
2. in the second one this column is missing and then you can reduce this value in the ABC columns

as you can see the value of Text Inset = 0

What should I do to reduce the power in row 2 of the header while maintaining 1 column with 270 degrees of rotation?
Where is the problem?

Thank you for the hints

Difficult to understan your problem without a file to do some test.

When you select the table, the panel show proprieties of the first cell, nt the ones of the last cell where you had your cursor.

I can modify cell A' s height if the cursor is in it.

Thanks for the responses
ok, maybe my english is bad, sorry, this is not my first language.
maybe again:
in one table I have the first column in which the inscription is rotated 279 degrees - in this table I can not reduce the height of the ABC cells
AND THIS IS MY PROBLEM, I DON'T KNOW WHY IT HAPPENS.
CAN I DO THE WRONG WAY?
AND THERE IS ANY PROGRAM ERROR HERE

the second table does not have this first column - and here I can reduce the height of these ABC cells

I am sending the AP file

Thank you Lagarto for all the hints. Especially with Transform.

I reduced the whole tables and then increased the bottom lines. Works !!! :-) See in the screenshot.
I also made quite a new table and there was no problem. Interesting...
Note that the font in the first cell "Photo" is even larger than in those previous tables.
See also on the cell "Tube diameter Ø" - the smallest possible height.


My goal is to make the headings of all tables in my catalog as equal and of the smallest possible height.

In Adobe InDesign, we numerically specify the height of rows - the Exactly parameter. Then, possibly, the contents of the cell are hiding. You can then change the font size or height of the cells.

Thanks again for the hints.
best regards
