Actually, you know what? I did see the formatter earlier when I was exploring the layout. I wondered what that was. Mine was already on the screen when I first launched Pages, so maybe I just need to go in there and look a little bit more thoroughly.

Hi Chris,
cmd-option-i will toggle the inspector, which is labeled as the “formatter,” when open. One of the options in this group is a whole bunch of table and cell settings.
Best,
Zack.

OK, can you refresh my memory on how to toggle the inspector? I'm drawing a blank.

Hi Chris,
Sorry I don't have the time right now to go into a detailed look, but I think that the table menu and possibly the inspector are the kinds of areas you want to look at. I think you can make changes to cells, and certainly you can add columns and rows from them.
All the best,
Zack.

I have a couple of questions about creating tables in Pages.

First of all, I noticed that by default when I inserted a table, and selected basic, it made 4 columns and 5 rows if I remember correctly. So, how do I either insert rows, or columns as well as how do I remove them if needed?

Second question is, how can I query the size of a cell to make sure that my text isn’t going to be too long and run outside the border boundaries of the cell? Will the cells automatically compensate, or do I have to somehow stretch them? I know a sighted person could grab their little handle with a mouse and drag to stretch them, but that obviously doesn’t work for people like us.

Anyway, any thoughts would be very appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris.
