Table height

Control how much of the table is visible before vertical scrolling appears. Choose between Small, Medium, Large, or Full content depending on how much data you want to keep visible on the page.

Quick guide

  1. Open the Formatting tab in the table setup panel.
  2. Select Table height.
  3. Choose one of the available presets.
  4. Preview the result and click Save.

Tip: This setting only affects how much of the table is visible at once. It does not change the data itself.

Available presets

  • Small — Shows a compact portion of the table.
  • Medium — Shows more rows while keeping the page balanced.
  • Large — Shows a larger table area for active work.
  • Full content — Shows all rows without internal table scrolling.

If the table has fewer rows than the selected height, it will simply display the available content without cutting anything off. Table height only changes the visible area inside the macro. Filters, sorting, exports, and the underlying dataset remain unchanged.

Recommended uses

  • Small — Good for meeting pages or compact summaries.
  • Medium — Useful for short reports and day-to-day lists.
  • Large — Better for backlogs, registers, and tables you work with actively.
  • Full content — Best when you want the entire dataset visible directly on the page.
Use case: Large height for sprint backlog

Product Team — Sprint Planning

Context and challenge:
The team reviews a large sprint backlog every week and needs to keep many rows visible while still working comfortably inside the page.

Solution:
They set Table height to Large so more backlog items remain visible without switching to a full-page view.

Impact:
The team can review more items at once while keeping the page readable and easier to navigate.

Note
Table height affects only the visible table area inside the macro. The table content, available rows, and configured features stay the same.

Choose the height that best matches the job at hand — from quick scans to deeper reviews — without changing the underlying data.
