Resize, move, or lock a table

Resize a table

Resizing a table makes the table larger or smaller; it doesn’t change the number of rows and columns it contains.

  1. Click the table, then click Table handle in the upper-left corner.

  2. Drag any of the white squares on the edge of the table to make the table larger or smaller:

    • Resize the rows and columns simultaneously: Drag the white square in the corner.

    • Resize the table proportionally: Shift-drag the white square in the corner.
