Editing a Table Element
For each table element the following properties can be specified: the coordinates and size of the element; width, style, and color of the lines; cell spacing; whether the first row contains column names; a linked field.
You can change the properties of the table element in the Element Properties window located in the bottom right corner of the main window. The Element Properties window is displayed only if View → Element Properties is selected on the main menu.
