Resizing a Table
You can make a table larger or smaller by dragging one of its selection handles or by
using the Metrics Inspector. You can also change the size of a table by resizing its
columns and rows.
Before resizing a table, you must select it, as “Selecting a Table” on page 118 describes.
Here are ways to resize a table that’s selected:
m Drag one of the square selection handles that appear when a table is selected.
To maintain a table's proportions, hold down the Shift key as you drag to resize the
table.
To resize from the table’s center, hold down the Option key as you drag.
