Writer Designer's Update 2018: What's Changed with Tables
Hey there, Writers! =]
As a part of the Writer Designer's Update 2018, here's everything new and improved with Tables in Writer:
1. Changing columns to rows (Transposing a Table)
One of the most widely used features in spreadsheets—Transpose Cells—is now available in Writer. Imagine you have columns in a table that's cramped for space, and doesn't fit on the page very well. With the
Transpose Table
option, you can now flip columns into rows, helping you optimize the margins better.
To do this, right-click anywhere on the table, and choose
More Options
>
Transpose Table
.
2. Text to Table
Generate a new table from existing text in your document. All you have to do is select a block of text, go to
Tools
on the left panel (
☰
), and click on
Convert Text to Table
.
Choose a separator character to tell Writer where to divide the text into rows and columns (
hyphen in the above example
).
3. Table to Text
Similarly, it's now easier to extract data from a table and present it as normal text in your document. To do this, right-click anywhere on the table, and choose
More Options
>
Convert Table to Text
.
4. New visual cues for table operations
We've made it easier to play around with tables. Use the new visual cues to select cells, to choose a theme color for your table, to rearrange the rows and columns or even move a table altogether.
6. Splitting tables
Thanks to everyone who wrote to us asking to add this feature. You can now split a table into multiple tables from any selected point.
To do this, right-click at the position from where you want the table to be split, and choose
More
Options
>
Split Table
.
That's all for now. Do check out the
Writer Designer's Update blog
for everything else we're announcing along with this update.
Happy writing!
