Using tables

Tables are a powerful mechanism to

convey structured information quickly, so

they represent an important tool when

creating a presentation. You can create

tables directly in Impress; there is no need

to embed a Calc spreadsheet or a Writer

text table, although in some circumstances

it makes sense to do so as the functionality

provided by a Calc spreadsheet is far

superior to those provided by an Impress

table.

Many predefined table designs are

available in the Table design section of the

task pane.

Creating a table

When working with tables it is beneficial

to know the number of rows and columns

needed as well as the look and feel. The

parameters can be adjusted later, but is

more laborious than setting the correct

table dimensions from the beginning.

To insert a table, proceed as follows:

1) Position the slide which will contain

the table in the work area. If

necessary modify the slide layout in order to reserve the place for

the table.

2) If the task pane is already open select Table Design. If the task

pane is not visible, select View > Task pane, then select the

Table Design task.

3) Select one of the predefined styles, which only differ in the color

scheme. You will be able to change the table colors later on,

however, it is recommended that you select a color scheme

similar to the one you want to obtain. Selecting a style opens the

dialog box of Figure 48 where you can specify the number of rows

and columns.
