Formatting Tables

Existing tables can be reformatted and repositioned.

You can use the new toolbar to format any table in a valid presentation (of any size, in any position).

Tables containing both text and numbers will be formatted perfectly.

 Format Table without Totals - Formats the active table without a total row at the bottom.

 Format Table with Totals - Formats the active table with a total row at the bottom.

Any cells containing text are automatically aligned on the left and any cells containing numbers are automatically aligned on the right.

Advanced Table Formatting

You can obviously still use the familiar Tables and Borders toolbar to apply any specifc table formatting.

Things to Remember

Pressing F2 when inside a table will select the whole table.

The automatic formatting will change the font colour, alignment, line spacing and will also remove any bold, italics or underline.

Automatic Table Formatting is switched on by default but can be temporarily disabled by selecting (Options > Settings)(General tab, Automatic Table Formatting).
