Table 10

Table 9 above with cells heights distributed evenly

Cause the table to resize to fit its contents (and settings)

You can resize any column to have its contents fit the cells by dragging the appropriate line.

Figure 144

Dragging a line to cause the cell to fit the contents

However, to cause the entire table to “hug” its contents (based on the size (amount) of the text and
its padding (as explained on page 156), Nisus Writer Express offers a special tool.

1.

Click anywhere in the table to activate it.

2.

Click the Fit to Contents button on the Table Cells palette or choose Fit to Contents from the
Table menu.

Table 11

Result of choosing Fit to Contents

This command does not affect the height of rows unless it causes some wrapped text to “unwrap”.
