More improvements to tables in docs - BIG TIME
planned
A
Arek
It looks like tables in docs have been slightly improved - https://clickup.canny.io/feature-requests/p/improve-tables-in-docs-big-time.
However, still big improvements are needed:
* Background color
* Header formatting
* More column width control
* Cell merging
* Center align tables
* They still look ugly
* ... I could go on and on
At the very least implement something like Typora has - more control, more formatting options and rendering is quite good for markdown tables.

Agree this really needs looking at ASAP as they are totally unusable inside documents.

Need:
a) format text in cells using the "turn into" function (duh)!
b) Add items like checklists (cut and pasting doesn't work properly... can't select a checkbox for example once pasted into a cell)
c) ability to cut and paste data across columns / rows
d) Select and edit an entire row (e.g. simply bolding the title row)
e) Align column widths across multiple tables. (even if it was a snap to grid type approach) - just need a quick way to ensure multiple tables are the same column widths.
f) Format "painter" (like "MS Word")
g) Get rid if bugs (e.g. columns suddenly getting hidden when deleting above the table)

Please add an option to Wrap/Unwrap the text inside a cell of the table in the Doc. For particular cell and for entire table.

Mads Ellegård
Need the ability to add tags and use them as filter.
Mike McCaman
Please add the ability to use slash commands inside of a table

Heavily agree on this. tables in docs are impossible to work with once created. Creating a table with Ai is easy, but if you ever need to do something to it you have to block off a couple hours just to get it looking correct.
Lots of improvement needed on tables. Great call out OP.

Please remove the column widths so we can show all label options and label text by expanding a column
Peter Lloyd
please remove the column width limits. Currently you can't expand cell width beyond a certain size, meaning that text/content gets cut off.

In addition to the list above, please allow copy/paste from Excel into an existing table (today it copies as text into the first column, but can copy paste properly into its own table)
Given the issue above, allow a row from another document table to be brought into (cut/paste) into an existing one from within ClickUp
And, allow a row to be dragged out of the existing table into it's own table (or cut and paste)
We definitely need whole row or column formatting, it takes so much extra time to format a table nicely; for example, I want a header row to be colored and bold, I have to do that at each cell instead of the entire row.

Not related to tables in docs but TABLE VIEW could use some help too. It would be nice to be able to create two table views that had different information. All information needed for all tables is in the list, but that one table admin can review and another table is for managers to review with different information in each. So far, I created two tables within the same list and they are mirroring one another.
