15.1 tables - inability to duplicate rows with images

**yjs** · 27 May 2018, 12:36 PM

When you add a row to a table, cells with text are reproduced but cells with images become empty.

This is a real problem for anyone who wants to use e.g. Table 4 for a staff directory with more than 5 people... Acorn's helpful suggestion involving the fill tool still means that the images in the table have different properties. Can Xara please alter the tables in the gallery so that adding a row reproduces all the elements of the previous row and the integrity of the table is preserved. Thanks!

PS: Of course this is part of a wider problem of image handling: There needs to be an easy way to insert a graphic into a cell and have it properly anchored. Right now, if you try to insert a checkmark into an cell in Table 1, it will not move with the rest of the table unless it was added as a bitmap fill; and even then, the padding etc. of this cell won't match that of the other cells.

Since your gallery tables include images, I'd say that fixing this issue (or at least providing clear instructions for a workaround to insert a graphic into a table) is quite urgent.

Thanks,
Yaffa

Hi Yaffa,

This has been fixed internally shortly after the last patch unfortunately so it won't be released until the next patch!

Apologies for the inconvenience caused and many thanks for your info
