in Writer: Changing cell width

[Oak]

How do you change the length of a single cell in a table while leaving all others the same??

[EarnestAl]

You can’t.

• If you increase the height then all
  cells on the same row will increase
  in height. Click Table > Size > Row Height, in dialog that opens untick Auto size and enter value required

• If you increase the width then all
  cells in the same column will
  increase in width. Click Table > Size > Row width, in dialog that opens change the width. Or drag column divider with mouse.

• If you merge a cell with the one next
  to it, the one next to it will not be
  the same as it won’t be there. Select adjoining cells, click Table > Merge Cells

Cheers, Al
