About This Feature
Overview
Distribute Row Heights is a built-in table tool in WPS Presentation on Windows. It sets the selected table rows to the same height so the table looks more even and easier to read.
Core capabilities:
- Make row heights consistent: Apply the same height across selected rows in one step.
- Improve table layout: Keep report slides, lesson slides, and information tables visually organized.
- Reduce manual adjustment: Avoid resizing rows one by one when you need a cleaner table layout.
This feature is useful for slide formatting, classroom materials, business reports, and final layout cleanup before sharing a presentation.

| Capability Summary | In WPS Presentation, the Distribute Row Heights command makes selected table rows the same height for a more uniform slide layout. | Microsoft Support states that in table layout tools, users can select Layout > Distribute Rows to make all rows the same height. | Google Docs Editors Help states that users can right-click a table and choose Distribute rows or Distribute columns to make rows or columns the same size. | Notion Help Center describes table views with row reordering, column resizing, wrap text, and database properties, but it does not describe a command for distributing row heights evenly in presentation tables. | Adobe Acrobat on the web focuses on PDF editing, document organization, and text or image editing, and its public help content does not describe a presentation-table command for distributing row heights. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: The command is available directly in the table tools workflow for presentation editing, which is useful when you need to standardize table layout on a slide quickly. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft provides a similar row distribution command, but the documented path is centered on the Layout tab in Microsoft table tools. | Compared with WPS: Google provides a similar distribute rows action through a context menu, with a workflow that differs from desktop presentation editing. | Compared with WPS: Notion is oriented more toward database-style tables and workspace organization than slide table formatting with a dedicated distribute-row-height command. | Compared with WPS: Adobe Acrobat is designed mainly for PDF editing and document workflows rather than presentation table layout editing. |

Overall Conclusion: If your main task is to clean up table layout in presentation slides, WPS provides a direct way to make row heights consistent. Microsoft and Google also document similar table-sizing actions, while Notion and Adobe focus on different product scenarios such as databases or PDF editing.
