Operation Manual

46 Layout Items
Each cell in a table behaves like a mini-frame. Like frame text you can
vary character and paragraph properties, apply named text styles, embed
inline images, apply solid text colour fills. Some unique features include
number formatting and formula insertion.
To insert a table:
1. From the Quick Build tab (Layout Items category), click
Table.
2. Click on your page, or drag out to set the size of your table.
The Create Table dialog appears with a selection of preset table
formats shown in the Format window.
3. Step through the list to preview the layouts and select one (use
up/down keyboard arrows for a "live" preview of each). To
begin with a plain table, select (Default).
4. (Optional) Click Edit if you want to further customize your
chosen format.
5. Set the Table Size. This is the number of rows and columns
that make up the table layout.
6. Click OK. The new table appears on the page.
