Creating an Advanced Table

To create an advanced table, place your cursor below the element after which you want to insert it (paragraph, heading, image, or PDF attachment), and click the 'Add Table' icon.

The Table Plugin opens; first, define the basic structure:

Click on 'OK' to confirm the creation of the table.

Then customize the table via the 'Table Properties' icon:

1. Number of columns
2. Number of rows
3. Cell padding size
4. Table alignment
5. Display of caption
6. Background color
7. Outer borders:
   1. Border width
   2. Border style
   3. Border color
8. Inner borders:
   1. Border width
   2. Border style
   3. Border color

Note: Once the table is created, you can return to its properties. See our complete article here: What Are the Formatting Options for Advanced Tables?

Pasting a Previously Copied Table

You can copy and paste a table along with its formatting:

1. Copy the table (in XaitProposal or in Excel).
2. In the Table Plugin, click 'Paste from Clipboard'.
3. The table is imported, and its original formatting is preserved.
