Aspose::Words::Tables::Table Class Reference

Represents a table in a Word document.

Table is a block-level node and can be a child of classes derived from Story or InlineStory.

Table can contain one or more Row nodes.

A minimal valid table needs to have at least one Row.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Table()

Aspose::Words::Tables::Table::Table ( System::SharedPtr< Aspose::Words::DocumentBase doc)

Initializes a new instance of the Table class.

When Table is created, it belongs to the specified document, but is not yet part of the document and ParentNode is null.

To append Table to the document use InsertAfter or InsertBefore on the story where you want the table inserted.

Parameters
docThe owner document.
Examples

Shows how to create a table.

auto doc = MakeObject<Document>();
auto table = MakeObject<Table>(doc);
doc->get_FirstSection()->get_Body()->AppendChild(table);
// Tables contain rows, which contain cells, which may have paragraphs
// with typical elements such as runs, shapes, and even other tables.
// Calling the "EnsureMinimum" method on a table will ensure that
// the table has at least one row, cell, and paragraph.
auto firstRow = MakeObject<Row>(doc);
table->AppendChild(firstRow);
auto firstCell = MakeObject<Cell>(doc);
firstRow->AppendChild(firstCell);
auto paragraph = MakeObject<Paragraph>(doc);
firstCell->AppendChild(paragraph);
// Add text to the first call in the first row of the table.
auto run = MakeObject<Run>(doc, u"Hello world!");
paragraph->AppendChild(run);
doc->Save(ArtifactsDir + u"Table.CreateTable.docx");

Member Function Documentation

◆ Accept()

bool Aspose::Words::Tables::Table::Accept ( System::SharedPtr< Aspose::Words::DocumentVisitor visitor)
overridevirtual

Accepts a visitor.

Enumerates over this node and all of its children. Each node calls a corresponding method on DocumentVisitor.

For more info see the Visitor design pattern.

Parameters
visitorThe visitor that will visit the nodes.
Returns
True if all nodes were visited; false if DocumentVisitor stopped the operation before visiting all nodes.
Examples

Shows how to use a DocumentVisitor implementation to remove all hidden content from a document.

void RemoveHiddenContentFromDocument()

// 1 - Paragraph node:

para->Accept(hiddenContentRemover);
// 2 - Table node:
SharedPtr<Table> table = doc->get_FirstSection()->get_Body()->get_Tables()->idx_get(0);

Implements Aspose::Words::Node.

◆ AutoFit()

void Aspose::Words::Tables::Table::AutoFit ( Aspose::Words::Tables::AutoFitBehavior  behavior)

Resizes the table and cells according to the specified auto fit behavior.

This method mimics the commands available in the Auto Fit menu for a table in Microsoft Word. The commands available are "Auto Fit to Contents", "Auto Fit to Window" and "Fixed Column Width". In Microsoft Word these commands set relevant table properties and then update the table layout and Aspose.Words does the same for you.

Parameters
behaviorSpecifies how to auto fit the table.
Examples

Shows how to build a new table while applying a style.

auto doc = MakeObject<Document>();
auto builder = MakeObject<DocumentBuilder>(doc);
SharedPtr<Table> table = builder->StartTable();
// We must insert at least one row before setting any table formatting.
builder->InsertCell();
// Set the table style used based on the style identifier.
// Note that not all table styles are available when saving to .doc format.
table->set_StyleIdentifier(StyleIdentifier::MediumShading1Accent1);
// Partially apply the style to features of the table based on predicates, then build the table.
builder->Writeln(u"Item");
builder->get_CellFormat()->set_RightPadding(40);
builder->InsertCell();
builder->Writeln(u"Quantity (kg)");
builder->EndRow();
builder->InsertCell();
builder->Writeln(u"Apples");
builder->InsertCell();
builder->Writeln(u"20");
builder->EndRow();
builder->InsertCell();
builder->Writeln(u"Bananas");
builder->InsertCell();
builder->Writeln(u"40");
builder->EndRow();
builder->InsertCell();
builder->Writeln(u"Carrots");
builder->InsertCell();
builder->Writeln(u"50");
builder->EndRow();
doc->Save(ArtifactsDir + u"DocumentBuilder.InsertTableWithStyle.docx");

◆ ClearBorders()

SharedPtr<Table> table = doc->get_FirstSection()->get_Body()->get_Tables()->idx_get(0);
// Align the table to the center of the page.
table->set_Alignment(TableAlignment::Center);
// Clear any existing borders and shading from the table.
table->ClearBorders();
table->ClearShading();
// Add green borders to the outline of the table.
// Fill the cells with a light green solid color.
doc->Save(ArtifactsDir + u"Table.SetOutlineBorders.docx");

Shows how to remove all borders from a table.

auto doc = MakeObject<Document>();
auto builder = MakeObject<DocumentBuilder>(doc);
SharedPtr<Table> table = builder->StartTable();
builder->InsertCell();
builder->Write(u"Hello world!");
builder->EndTable();
