Adjusting Tables

The table we just created is OK, but let’s try some of the other table styles and see how they look. To edit a table’s appearance after you’ve created it:

  • Go into Edit mode.
  • Click on the table you want to adjust, and click on the Table icon in the green bar.
  • This brings up a pop-up box, and you can change the table class and add/remove columns and rows. At any point in this process, if you wish to undo the changes you made, click Fix Table, and the table will be reset to the way it was before you began editing it. When you’re done making changes, click the “Close” button.

    In this case, let’s select the “listing” class from the pop-up and click “Close”.



You’ll see how different this table looks. We might have to take out those two blank columns to make it look right. Try some of the other styles and find one that you like.
