Make your tables in a sensible table editor, then import them into latex. Or just blatantly copy the interwebs...

Summary of additions and changes

  • HTML tables can now be pasted in the editor. Pasting will open the Insert Table wizard with the information from the pasted table. This allows pasting from Excel, LibreOffice Calc, Google Spreadsheets, but also from your browser for regular web pages.
  • Table column type will be Number if all cells in the column are numbers, otherwise it will be Text.
  • The first row is interpreted as a header.
  • Does (for now at least) support only basic table syntax. No col/rowspans, borders or styling. Only bold, italic and underlined text will be replaced with \textbf, \textit and \underline. We could add more support when the table insertion wizards upgrades as well.
  • When holding Shift while pasting, the Insert Table dialow will not show. This still allows for raw pasting.
  • Fixed UI issues with the Insert Table wizard,
  • Table wizard does no longer require any field to be filled in. Empty fields will just generate empty commands.
  • Refactored table creation wizard code to make it better readable.
  • Moved table wizard classes to the nl.hannahsten.texifyidea.action.wizard.table package.
