Tables bring structured rows and columns into 📝Rich Content — insert one with /table, edit it with a floating toolbar, and resize any row or column by dragging. They exist because some information is genuinely tabular, and reformatting it into prose loses the structure that made it useful. They're for comparisons, data, and reference lists that read better in a grid.

Key Capabilities

• Insertion — /table inserts a 3×3 grid with a header row
• Row and column controls — a floating table toolbar inserts rows above or below and columns left or right, removes the current row or column, resets sizing, or deletes the table; a More actions panel shows labeled buttons that name the row or column affected
• Resizable — drag a column edge or row edge to resize; the size persists through save
• Full-screen editing — Edit table full screen opens the table in a window-sized editor with row and column selection grips; changes are live in the memo and Done closes it (Escape also closes, returning focus to the table).
• Tab navigation — Tab and Shift+Tab move between cells
• Markdown roundtrip — tables save as standard pipe-delimited markdown, so they read cleanly outside MythOS too
• Chat rendering — tables in AI chat responses render the same as editor tables, not raw pipe text

Getting Started

1. Type /table on a blank line, or select Table from the / menu
1. Use the floating toolbar to add or remove rows and columns
1. Drag a row or column edge to resize

FAQ

• Can I resize columns and rows? Yes — drag any column or row edge; the new size is saved with the table.
• What happens to a table if I paste it elsewhere? It exports as standard GitHub-Flavored Markdown pipe syntax, so it stays readable in any markdown viewer.
• Do tables work in AI chat? Yes — when an agent's response includes tabular data, it renders as a formatted table, not raw pipe characters.
• Can I format text inside a cell? Basic text is supported; full rich formatting like mentions inside a cell is not yet supported.
