Table Block
The Table Block facilitates the creation of row-based data tables. Options include a caption for contextual information, zebra styling for rows or columns, align content within cells and adjust font sizes, ensuring precise control over the appearance of your data tables.
Table rows
The Structure field is utilized for generating table rows. The initial row is dedicated to headings, and each subsequent row can accommodate up to eight cells. To ensure proper alignment, empty cells within a row should contain a character like a dash. Markdown or Kirbytext formatting is supported for any text styling within the table cells.
| Heading 1 | Heading 2 | Heading 3 | Heading 4 | Heading 5 | Heading 6 | Heading 7 | Heading 8 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Row heading 1 | Table data | Table data |
| Table data | Table data | Table data | Table data |
| Row heading 2 | Table data | Table data | – | Table data | Table data | Table data | Table data |
| Row heading 3 | Table data | Table data | Table data | Table data | Table data | Table data | Table data |

KirbyTags and Tooltip
In the given example, an optional table caption is employed, along with zebra columns and the default font size. The data is right-aligned and forced onto a single line. Notably, a tooltip, an icon, and an image are integrated using the resize and icon tags, respectively, which are custom ZOON KirbyTags.
| Heading 1 | Heading 2 | Heading 3 | Heading 4 | Heading 5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image |  | 100.000 | 1.000 | 100 |
| Icon | 200.000 | 2.000 | 200 | |
| Row 3 | Table data forced on a line | 300.000 | 3.000 | 300 |
| ToolTip | 400.000 | 4.000 | 400 |
