Convert text to a table

When you're working on a document in the Oxygen-based editor, you can convert lists, paragraphs, or inline content to a table. The text you select is inserted into the first column of the new table, starting from the first row after the header. If the text you select contains a mixture of elements that can't be converted, you'll receive an error message.

  1. In the editor, select the text you want to put into a table.
  2. In the toolbar, click the table menu Oxygen_Table, and then click Insert Table.
  3. In the Editor pane, where the empty table is inserted, to give the table a name, click Title and enter your text.
  4. Optionally, if you want to format the entire table, right-click anywhere in the table, and from the menu select Customize display properties.
  5. Optionally, if you want to format columns, click colspecs, and then choose how to format your table.
  6. In the table, enter text into the table cells.
  7. On the toolbar, click Save.
    After you insert a table, you can right-click anywhere to access the the following options:
