Table

16 min

Sometimes, lists aren't enough to convey the information that you want. Thus the reason for editable tables.

Table allows you to structure and present information in a clear, organized, and visually appealing format. It's perfect for displaying data in rows and columns, making it easy to compare, analyze, and understand.

When use a table

Tables are ideal when your content:

Has repeated patterns (e.g., attributes, features, data points)

Needs comparison (pricing, plans, specs)

Benefits from horizontal scanning

Understanding the table controls

Every table has interactive controls that appear when you click the handles, cells or margins.

Each row has its individual handle. You can use it to:

Add row to above or below ;

Change background color ;

Delete row ;

Column handle (top side)

Each column has its individual handle. You can use it to:

Resize a column - adjust the cell width

Column resizing lets you control how much space each column takes.

Hover your cursor over the right edge or left edge of a column and click & drag to adjust the widht.

Editing cell content

Every cell in a table is its own mini editor. You can type, format, and structure content exactly like you would in any normal block, no special tools or steps required. Simply click inside a cell and begin typing.

Selecting a text will trigger the WYSIWYG Menu to appear, giving you access to bold, italics, inline code, links, and any other basic formatting you normally use.

Cells also support inserting blocks. Here are the available in‑cell blocks you can use:

Headings

Lists

Images

These are the only block types supported inside table cells.

Full‑screen editing mode

When a table becomes large or visually complex, the in‑page editor can feel cramped.

The Full‑Screen Editing Mode gives you a dedicated editor especially for managing large datasets and wide tables, benefiting all:

See more columns at once without having to scroll horizontally.

Work with large row counts in a smoother, distraction‑free space.

Add, remove, or rearrange rows and columns with less visual clutter.

Avoid page reflow — the rest of the document stays out of the way.

To open Open full‑screen mode, clicking the expand icon the upper‑right corner.

To close, simply press on esc key or button, or click outside.

Every change is automalitcally saved.
