Good to know

Fair questions.

The Table block is a Grinner block for a grid with even lines between cells, where every cell can hold any blocks. It reflows neatly on phones and can reveal cell by cell. Use it for comparisons, price lists and timetables.

Yes. Type one number per column in Column widths, such as 2 / 1 / 1. Widths apply while every column shows, and tablet and phone columns stay equal.

Paragraphs placed straight in a cell keep their spacing. Set their margins to zero.

No merged cells and no sorting.

Cells stack in order, header cells first, unless you give phones more than one column.
