Tables

Tables in Colletta are ordinary markdown tables, the kind made of | characters. You don’t need to draw the pipes yourself: insert a table, then fill it in and rearrange it from the keyboard or the Table menu.

Choose Table in the slash menu (/), or Insert table in the toolbar’s Table menu. You get a 3 by 3 table ready to fill in.

Put the cursor in a cell, then open the toolbar’s Table menu. It has everything for rows and columns:

  • Add row above, Add row below, Move row up, Move row down, Delete row
  • Add column left, Add column right, Move column left, Move column right, Delete column
  • Sort by this column, A to Z and Z to A
  • Align columns, which lines up the | characters so the markdown is easy to read in Source view and in other tools
