Format Table Cells

When you select one or more cells in a table, the Table Formatting toolbar opens on the top side of the drawing area.

Use this toolbar to

Set the font, size and style of the selected cells. These settings override the default parameters of the table.
Set the cell background and text colors.
Change the horizontal and vertical alignment of the text inside the cell.
Clear all formatting of the selected cells and revert them to the table defaults.
Edit the table to insert and remove rows and columns, fit row heights and merge or split the selected cells.
Insert and modify functions and formulas.

Click the Edit button on the Table toolbar to open the Edit menu. This menu provides the following functions:

Insert Row Above/Below: adds an empty row above the first selected cell or below the last selected cell.
Insert Column Left/Right: adds an empty column to the left of the first selected cell or to the right of the last selected cell.
Delete Row/Column: removes the row or column of the selected cells.
Fit Row Height: resizes the row to fit the largest text in all columns.
Merge Cells: when the table contains two or more selected cell, this command merges the cells from the first to the last cell. The selected cells don’t have to be contiguous. Note that the Merge command only displays the content of the first cell and hides any data that might be in the other cells.
Split Cells: apply this command to a merged cell to restore the original rows and columns. This command also restores the original data of the other cells.
