--General tab-- | Use this tab to define the table structure. |
| Table | This section contains a button for Inserting or Deleting a table, as well as two fields for defining the number of rows and columns in the table. A secondary click on the Insert button displays a grid of cells for quicker definition of table size. | |
| Rows | Once the table has been created, additional rows can be created above or below the selected cell. | |
| Columns |
Once the table has been created, additional columns can be created to the left or right of the selected cell. The width of a column can be set via the ad hoc field, although it's generally easier to set it with the mouse by positioning the cursor on the border between two columns. |
