Editing a table in OO Writer

Post by Bausarita »

I'm new and I tried searching for this answer but didn't have any luck.

I inserted a table into a OO Writer doc. I would like to cut and existing row and insert it above or below another existing row in the table. I get how to insert/delete a row and I get Ctl X/Ctl V but these are not the solutions for my specific question.

I know its elementary but thank you so much. :crazy:

Insert the destination row. Then select the source row and choose Copy. Move to the destination row and Paste. Then select the source row and Delete it.

thank you Rory - I had figured that out but was hoping there was a right mouse click option to do it more quickly (i.e. right click cut, click where want to insert and right click insert paste) Good to know that this is the only way. Thank you very much and have a nice day in Ireland :)

I can't say if there is a shortcut - I rarely use tables. It is overcast and dull, daylight fading now.
