Display data filter
Off
Enable this option to display a filter panel above the table. Panel contains a text box to enter the required search criteria and buttons: Filter to proceed with the search, and, Clear to clear the box to start a new search. Can use regular expressions. To know more about regular expressions, refer to thethis article. Available since 8.1.0to display a drop-down list with unique column values under each column heading. By default, the None option is selected.
Select filter values in multiple columns to see a more specific row. Select None to display all rows for that column. As filters are applied on other columns, the display of information differs. Select None for all columns to show all rows for all columns. Available since 8.3.0.
Note
Filters are applicable only for text based searches, and are not applicable on data in nested macros or nested tables currently.
This version of applying filters replaces the previous feature available since version 8.1.0. In the earlier version, a filter panel was displayed above the table and the search text box accepted regular expressions. From version 8.3.0, only column filters are available for tables.
Info
There is a known issue with the Display data filter parameter. When you select the drop-down for the first time, the column gets sorted though the list is not visible, and from the next click onwards, the list drops down displaying the unique values available in that column. This does not affect the working of the filters in any way.

Column settings
Formatting
Column styles
Click Start Formatting to format your table columns.
Each of the column styles is made up of one or more CSS properties (semi-colon separated). The styles are applied to the respective columns as provided in the editor window. A style can be reused for subsequent columns by using a numeric reference of the column. (For example, you want to reuse 3rd column style in 6th - use 3 as style value in column 6) Column styles are applied to the table column and participate with other CSS properties to determine the look of an element. In particular, some properties may be overridden by table, row, or element styles or classes.
Example: background:lightyellow
Note
When the Insert auto number column parameter is On, say you want to repeat a column style, use numeric reference of this column +1 in the intended column.
For example, to reuse 3rd column style in 6th when Insert auto number column is On - use 4 as style value in column 6.
