New Options for Positioning Tables in Text Documents
Google Workspace introduces enhanced options for positioning tables and text in Google Docs. You will now be able to:
- Drag and drop tables within a document, placing them exactly where you want.
- Position text around a table on a page, specifying alignment (left, right, center) and margin of the surrounding text.
- Set a fixed position for a table on a page.
- Apply quick layouts to instantly position a table to a pre-defined location on a page.
Additionally, Google improved the import/export of Microsoft Word documents with tables to ensure better consistency in the documents.
To make use of this new functionality, choose Table Properties.
So now, struggling with placing tables in a text document is a thing of the past!
