Point - How do I add a table to a page?

Adding a table

You can add tables to pages in your Point brand portal. A table lives inside a text block in the WYSIWYG editor.

Create a table

1. Open the page in edit mode. See Point - How do I edit a page in the brand portal?
2. In a section, click the plus button and then click Text block.

3. In the text toolbar, click Insert Table.

4. In the grid, choose the number of rows and columns.

5. Click a cell and type your content.

Paste a table from another source

Pasting tables from other sources has limited support. The result depends on the source.

1. Add a new text block as above.
2. Delete the placeholder text.
3. Copy the table from your source.
4. Paste it into the empty text block.
5. If you are asked, choose Clean to paste only the values, or Keep to keep the formatting from the source. We recommend Clean.

How do I change a table?

Edit the text with the normal text toolbar.

Click inside a cell to open the table toolbar.

The top row changes the table:

• Table Header: adds a header row or column.
• Row and Column: add or remove rows and columns.
• Table Style: shows or hides the border.
• Remove Table: deletes the table.

The bottom row changes the cells:

• Cell: merges or splits cells.
• Cell Background: sets the cell colour.
• Vertical Align and horizontal align: position the text in the cell.

To resize columns and rows, drag their borders.

What should I know about pasting tables?

• You can't paste into a table that already exists. Paste into an empty text block, then add rows, columns and styling.
• Choose Clean when pasting, as some table styling can cause problems.
• Tables with formulas paste as the values only.
• Tables with values embedded from other sources may not paste correctly.
• Some sources paste without borders. Click inside the table and turn the border on with Table Style.
