API reference / Common / Engine types / TextTable

Interface: TextTable ​

A block-level table in a text story (docx w:tbl) — the text model's embedding point for the table sub-domain, mirroring how a GraphicFrame embeds a table in the shape tree.

It holds the table itself, whose cells in turn hold their own TextStory — the cyclic dependency the one-crate layout exists for. In the parent story it occupies one atomic slot; its cells are separate offset spaces reached by descending into it.

A wrapper around one field rather than TextBlock::Table(Table) directly, because the docx side will grow the properties that belong to the embedding rather than to the table — the floating anchor (w:tblpPr is a table property, but the frame it implies is not) among them.
