By default, rows and columns of a table are distributed evenly, which means that all cells are the same size. However, you can change both the row height and column width as desired by dragging and dropping any of the inner or outer borders of the table.
Note: To specify the exact row height, see Changing row properties, or for the column width, see Changing cell properties.
There is also the option of distributing rows and columns evenly across the table again: You can use the ribbon commands Table | Distribute rows and Table | Distribute columns to evenly distribute the selected rows or columns of a table.
If you want rows of a table to have the same height, proceed as follows:
1. | Select the desired rows (all or only some) of a table. |
2. | Choose the ribbon command Table | group Cells | Distribute rows . |
3. | As a result, the selected rows have the same height. |
If you want the columns of a table to have the same width, proceed as follows:
1. | Select the desired columns (all or only some) of a table. |
2. | Choose the ribbon command Table | group Cells | Distribute columns . |
3. | As a result, the selected columns have the same width. |
