What options needed to autofit a table to content?
if I set no Options/Bestwidth the table has the same width as the document and all cells have the same width and the width of all cells fit the table width.
What I "really" want is that a cell fit its content until a maximum width. When reaching maximum width content is word wraped.
Thanks in advance

Sorry, this feature is not implemented yet.

But only to fit (as an example) first column of a table to its largest content is possible?
At the moment I have something like this
Code: Select all
| |
||a |b |c ||
||a1 a2 |bbb1 |cc ||
||aaa1 |b1 |c ||
| |
but I want something like this
Code: Select all
| |
||a |b |c | |
||a1 a2 |bbb1 |cc | |
||aaa1 |b1 |c | |
| |
Or with other words: What is to do to get the smallest column width without word wrap

Include rvpaoNoWrap in the paragraph's Options

If I wanted to do rvpaoNoWrap in rtf what would be the appropriate rtf code that would turn this on?

Unfortunately, AFAIK, RTF does not have keywords for turning off word wrapping in paragraph.
There is a keyword for cells, but it has limitation
\clNoWrap :
Do not wrap text for the cell. Only has an effect if the table cell does not have a preferred \clwWidthN, which overrides \trautofitN.

This is good to know.
What I want to do is make a table of say 20 columns with yhe width dependent on the size of the words. It does not need to fit to view.

With default settings, MS Word does not wrap inside words. So, if each cell contains one word, it's like a no-wrap option.

Good to know.
Basically it will be content built in rtf a single table maybe text above it put into a sql and loaded as individual rtf files in TRichView so just checking on how to make it right.
