[oXygen-user] join 2 table cells

[Oxygen XML Editor Support (Mihaela Calotescu)]

Hi,

 From your message I understand that you have a framework that was 
created before oXygen 18.

In the last version we have updated the frameworks table operations. For 
example, we have removed the "Join Row Cells", "Join Cell Above" and 
"Join Cell Bellow" operations and we have added a single operation 
called "Join", that allows you to join all selected cells (similarly, 
there is a single split operation now).

To have access to the improved table operations you should get the last 
built-in framework. If you need to do some framework customization, I 
suggest you to use the framework extensions functionality.
In this way, you can benefit of new functionality added to the base 
framework by newer version. Here are more details:

Now, back to your problem. My question is: how do you select the two 
side-by-side cells? The old "Join Row Cells" operation works only on 
continuous selection. So, for example, if you select the cells by using 
CTRL + click, the operation will provide the same message you mentioned:

  "The operation is enabled only when there is a selection that contains 
at least two cells from the same row of a table or when the caret is 
positioned between two horizontally adjacent cells."

If this is your case, try to select the two cells by mouse drag (or by 
using SHIFT + arrows keys) before invoking the join operation.

Best Regards,

Mihaela
