12. Editing tables

Amaya does not contain a separate table editor. To Amaya, a table is simply a structure described by the

(X)HTML document type definition (DTD), like any other element, and it is edited as such. The same

commands apply to tables as to other HTML structures. However, a few specific commands have been

added for more convenient manipulations.

12.1. Creating a new table

To create a new table:

1. Move the cursor to the location in the document where you want to create the table.

2. Click the Table button in the Elements tool, or choose Table from the Insert menu.The

Table dialog displays.

3. Enter the initial number of rows and columns for the new table, and specify the border width,

etc.

4. Click the Confirm button. Amaya generates a graphical representation of the table.

5. The cursor is automatically placed in the first cell.

6. To insert content into other cells, click inside a cell and then insert the appropriate text, image,

etc. Use the arrow keys to navigate from one cell to another.

7. You can also edit the text of the table caption, add it if not already there, or remove it if it is not

needed.

12.2. Adding a new column

To add a new column to a table:

1. To create a new column to the left of an existing cell, select the Insert a column entry in the

Tools/Edit table submenu, or use the corresponding button in the Elements tool , or type

Ctrl-t Ctrl-b.

2. To create a new column to the right of an existing cell, select the Append a column entry in the

Tools/Edit table submenu, or use the corresponding button in the Elements tool , or type

Ctrl-t Ctrl-a.

In XML mode, a new column can also be added to a table using the Enter key. When a whole cell is

selected (use F2), pressing the Enter key creates a new cell and its corresponding column to the right of

the selected cell.

12.3. Removing, copying, pasting a column

When a whole column is selected, you can delete it, copy it, cut it and paste it before or after another

column, in the same or in another table.

To select a column:

1. Use the Select column entry in the Tools/Edit table submenu (Ctrl-t Ctrl-c).

2. You can also start the selection in a cell and extend to another cell in the same column (for

example start in Cell 1.2 and stop in Cell 2.2). Amaya changes to column selection mode.

Hitting the F2 key extends the selection to the whole column.

Cell 1.1 Cell 1.2 Cell 1.3
