Adjusting column widths in a table
You can adjust column width by specifying options in a panel, or by dragging. Use the first approach when you want your measurements to be precise.
Specifying column widths
- Click in the column whose width you want to change.
- In the action bar, click Properties.
- At the top of the pop-up panel, click Size.
- In the "Column width" box, type a value for the specified column and press ENTER.
- Click in the next column, and repeat Step 6 to change the width of additional column(s).
Note If you want the table to stay the width of your page, click Span to margin so that a check mark appears.
Your changes take effect immediately.
Dragging column widths
- Position the mouse pointer on the edge of the column until it turns into a double arrow.
- Drag the edge until the column is the width you want.
Note If you want the table to stay the width of your page, click Span to margin so that a check mark appears.
