Creating Tables
Tables are useful for visually comparing sets of data
or organizing information. This chapter covers the
basics of designing tables.
Keynote provides powerful features for making attractive, compelling tables that can
contain text or graphics.
Adding a Table
To place a table on a slide:
1 Choose Insert > Table (or click Table in the toolbar).
2 To resize the table, drag a selection handle.
3 To reposition the table, drag it to where you want it.
You can also draw a table on the slide canvas.
To draw a table on the slide canvas:
1 Hold down the Option key and click Table in the toolbar.
2 Release the Option key, and move the pointer over the slide canvas until it becomes a
crosshair.
3 Drag across the slide canvas to create a table any size you want.
As you drag, the number of rows and columns increases or decreases with the size of
the table. To constrain the table’s proportions, press the Shift key as you drag.
