freeze table
Hi
On a sheet how do I arrange tables ( say three or more) so that with every additional row added the tables do not overlap. Its like how can I "insert page break"?

Singh,
Page formatting is less than stellar in Numbers 3.x.
The best way I can thinnk of is to place the tables across (left to right) and expand them down. While they are placed across select the menu item "File > Print" to see how the pagination looks.
Here is an example with three tables side-by-side:
Now select the menu item "File > Print..":
Numbers has scaled everything to fit on one page. So unselect the "Auto Fit" check box and use the scale slider (just below the checkbox) to adjust the scale so each table is on its' own page:

Singh,
By default, and I don't think there is an option in V3.1 to turn it off, Tables in Numbers try to keep out of each other's way. Adding a row to an upper table on the sheet will cause tables below to move down.

Hi Jerrold
Must have got some setting wrong because overlapping tables are constant source of irritation. But now that you have confirmed the tables ought to keep out of each other's way, shall take a re-look.
Thanks

Hi Wayne
Ok yeah I should have realised this practical method, but I guess determination (stubborness) to get hold of this overlapping issue forced me for this discussion.

Hi Jerrold,
You right, absolutely. Default, on adding a row, the tables do not overlap. In the case I referred to I had probably checked 'wrap text' which led to overlapping because having un-checked it now the tables reffered and behaving.🙂
Thanks so much, once again
