Tables
Enodo Semantic incorporates a comprehensive table editor with cell merging, alignment, header and footer sections, and text formatting within each cell.
Create a table

- An empty table is inserted with a default configuration.
Paste from a spreadsheet
You can paste directly a table from Excel, Google Sheets, or any other spreadsheet:

- Paste into an existing table block. Enodo Semantic automatically detects HTML data or tab-separated data and constructs the table.

| Next cell | Tab |
| Previous cell | Shift+Tab |
| Cell above | Arrow up |
| Cell below | Arrow down |
| Cell to the left | Arrow left |
