WPS Table is a versatile and feature-rich spreadsheet application that is often used as an alternative to Microsoft Excel. It offers a variety of tools and functions to help users create, manage, and analyze data efficiently. One common task in spreadsheet applications is adjusting the row height and column width to fit the content or to enhance the visual appeal of the table.
Understanding Row Height and Column Width
In WPS Table, the row height refers to the vertical space allocated to each row, while the column width refers to the horizontal space allocated to each column. These dimensions can be adjusted individually or uniformly across the entire table. Properly adjusting these dimensions is crucial for ensuring that all data is visible and readable without the need for horizontal or vertical scrolling.

3. Look for the Row Height option and click on it.
4. A dialog box will appear, allowing you to enter the desired uniform row height. Enter the value and click OK.\
