Table cells are the central part of Table Management. In some cases, we may need to add new rows/columns, duplicate existing ones, change the height of a row/column, or delete them as well.
In this document, you’ll learn how to-
- Insert row/column (before and after)
- Duplicate row/column
- Remove row/column
- Merge neighboring cells
- Split merged cells
Let’s get started with managing our Ninja Tables Drag & Drop Table!
Enter into the Manage Cells option #
Enter the Management Mode by clicking on the Manage Cells button at the top of the table.

After clicking on the Manage Cells button, click on a cell you prefer; we have a similar screen as below, depending on the table content.

To operate any of the options from the above list, we must click this Manage Cells tab.
Exit the Manage Cells option #
After managing table cells, rows, or columns, we need to exit from the Manage Cells option to Normal Mode.
To do this, please click on the Close button on the leftmost side of the Table Editor.

We’ll follow the same step whenever we want to exit from the Manage Cells option.
Insert a row after a selected row #
After creating a table and adding data to the table, we may need more rows.
Ninja Tables lets you add new rows easily with just a few clicks from the Manage Cells option.
To do this, please click on any cell of the target row and click on the small expandable arrow.
From there, click on Insert Row After.

After clicking on the option, you will find your new row after the row you selected earlier.

Insert a column after a selected column #
Again, we may need more columns in our table.
Ninja Tables lets you add new columns easily from the Manage Cells option, just like we did earlier.
To do this, click on any cell of the target column and then click the small expandable arrow option. From there, click on the Insert Column After option.

After clicking on the option, you will find your new column after the column you selected earlier.

Insert a row before a selected row #
If you have followed this document from the beginning, you already know how to get the Row Column Management Options.
This time we will add a new row before our target row, and we will select Insert Row Before.

After clicking on the option, you will find your new row before the row you selected earlier.

Insert a column before a selected column #
This time we will add a new column before our selected column by clicking on Insert Column Before.

After clicking on the option, you will find your new column before the column you selected earlier.

Insert a row at the top of the table #
Select the Insert Top Row option to add a Row at the top of the table.

After clicking on the option, you will find your new row at the top of the table.

Insert a row at the bottom of the table #
To add a row at the bottom of the table, select the Insert Bottom Row option.

After clicking on the option, you will find your new row at the bottom of the table.

Insert a column to a selected column’s left #
Select the Insert Left Column option to add a column at the left side of the table.

After clicking on the option, you will find your new column on the left side of the table.

Insert a column to a selected column’s right #
To add a column on the right side of the table, select the Insert Right Column option.

After clicking on the option, you will find your new column on the right side of the table.

Remove an existing row #
To remove an existing row, select Remove Row from the available options.

Then you will find the selected row is removed.

Remove an existing column #
To remove an existing column, select the column and click Remove Column from the available options.

Then you will find the selected column removed.

Duplicate an existing row #
Sometimes we may need a duplicate row or data in another row. Manually copying and pasting is a tedious task. Ninja Tables makes this task easier by allowing you to duplicate an existing row in just a few clicks.
To do this, please click on the Duplicate Row option.

After clicking on the option, you will find your new duplicated row right after the row you selected earlier.

Duplicate an existing column #
Ninja Tables can duplicate an existing column for you too.
To do this, click on the Duplicate Column option.

You will find your new duplicated column right after the column you selected earlier.

Control row height #
Controlling or changing the height is also important in Table Management.
In Ninja Tables, you can either increase the values or manually input the exact value to control the height of the row you select.

Control column width #
Controlling the width of a column is similar to controlling the row’s height.
You can control the width of a column just like before- increase the values or manually input.

Merge neighboring cells #
Another important feature of Ninja Tables is to merging neighboring cells in the table.
To do this, select a target cell and then press SHIFT, and select other neighboring cells. Click on the Merge button.

You will then find your cells merged.

Split a merged cell into separate cells #
Splitting already merged cells?
Click on a merged cell and click the Split button above the table.

You will then find your merged cells to be split into neighboring cells.

Highlight column #

Another useful feature of the Ninja Tables is to highlight a column to make a specific column look different than others.
To highlight a column, click on the Highlight Column from the left, Manage Cell Options. The available options to Highlight a Column are:
- Highlight Column Height: The total height (increased) for the highlighted column.
- Shadow Color: The color of the shadow for the highlighted column.
- Shadow Effect (X-Axis): Shift the Shadow along the X-axis.
- Shadow Effect (Y-Axis): Shift the Shadow along the Y-axis.
- Shadow Effect (Blur Radius): The smoothness or amount of shadow.
That’s all for the available Manage Cells options and possibilities you can do inside the Ninja Tables Drag & Drop Table Builder.
