To edit and rearrange tables, cells, rows, and columns, you must first select them.
Note: The tasks below apply to a table you add to your page. They don’t apply to a page you formatted into columns.
Sometimes you must select rather than just click a table to complete a specific task. Selecting ensures that the table is in the correct state for the steps that follow.
Go to the Pages app on your Mac.
Open a document with a table, click outside the table to make sure it’s unselected, then click the table to select it.
Go to the Pages app on your Mac.
Open a document with a table, then do one of the following:
Select a cell: Click the table, then click the cell once.
Select a range of adjacent cells: Click the table, click the cell once, then drag a white dot any direction across the range of adjacent cells.
If you drag the yellow dot, you copy the cell contents to the rows you drag over. If you do this accidentally, drag the yellow dot back to its original position, or press Command-Z on the keyboard to undo the action.
Select nonadjacent cells: Click the table, click the cell once, then Command-click any other cells.
