About This Feature

Overview

Row Height is a table editing feature in WPS Office for Windows that helps you control the visible height of each row based on content and layout needs.

Core tasks include:

  • Drag to adjust row height: useful for quick visual changes to one row or nearby rows.
  • Set row height precisely: useful when you need a specific value or a consistent height across selected rows.
  • Distribute rows evenly: useful for making multiple rows the same height for a cleaner layout.

Common use cases include schedules, data tables, and summary tables.

It helps reduce uneven table spacing and makes content easier to read.

Distinct: it supports both direct mouse dragging and precise value-based adjustment in the same workflow.
