The item row can be dragged and dropped. You can swap columns with rows. A dragged row only drops as a row,
and a dragged column drops as a column only.
Here, moving a row from one location to another keeps the total count of rows same as before, three only.
Note: Drag & Drop is only possible within the same table.
4
To duplicate a row or column, press or hold the Alt(Win) or Opt(Mac) key after selecting a row or column. Multiple
continuously selected rows or columns can be dragged-dropped.
5
Drag-and-drop the selected row or column to the intended position. The total count of rows or columns increases
as the selected entity has been duplicated.
You can also copy the contents from header and footer rows to body rows (by pressing Alt/Opt key). Likewise, body
rows can also be duplicated and converted to header and footer rows.
You can only drag-drop header rows within header section (applicable only if you have multiple header rows) unless
alt/opt is used for duplicating the rows. Body rows cannot be drag>dropped into header section unless alt/opt is used
for duplicating the rows.

rows/columns from a table and paste them to another table as well.
