Simple tables improvements

WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND

Personally, it’s my must-have for simple tables:

  1. Merge table cells
  2. Selecting multiple cells at once (We can only select a column or row)
  3. Adding blocks to cells
  4. Adding paragraphs to table cell
  5. Copy prepared tables
  6. Autonumber table rows

Hi @kmarchwicki, thanks for your suggestions! Could you please split your topic into multiple topics with one Feature Request per topic? That helps us to keep track its status. For general feedback on simple tables your feedback is very welcome here:

  1. Merge table cells > No (other) existing Feature Request yet.
  2. Selecting multiple cells at once (We can only select a column or row) > Select multiple cells in table
  3. Adding blocks to cells > Images or Blocks in Simple Tables
  4. Adding paragraphs to table cell > No (other) existing Feature Request yet.
  5. Copy prepared tables > could you explain in more detail what you mean? (in a separate topic, please :wink: )
  6. Autonumber table rows > No (other) existing Feature Request yet.

Yes please @kmarchwicki! It’s been on the Table for some time now :rofl: (Sorry, I need to quit with these note-taking Dad jokes)

Several members have covered the topic pretty thoroughly:

WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND

I specifically need two features in the table:

  1. merge cells
  2. allows any object to be linked to a cell

HOW COULD IT BE DONE

About 1st:
Merging cells is really important,but It seems that none of the Notion software that uses ‘/commad’ can implement merging cells.

About 2nd:
Sometimes I need to add more content to the cell,Ex. I have to write a lot of details in the assets cell.
