Google Docs – Merging Cells in Google Documents

google docsgoogle-drive

Is it really not possible to merge cells with Google Docs Document?

I have a table like this:

-------------
| A | B | C |
-------------
| D |   E   |
-------------

Is this possible with Google Docs Document?

I also tried to do table nesting, but then I'm unable to remove padding so it looks terrible.

Best Answer

It is now possible to merge cells in Google Documents, just like how you would do it in Microsoft Word.

From the support page:

You can combine or split the cells of a table in a document or a presentation.

Merge cells

  1. Open a document or presentation.
  2. Highlight the cells of a table that you want to combine.
  3. Open the Table menu.
  4. Select Merge cells.

Unmerge cells

  1. Open a document or presentation.
  2. Highlight the cells of a table that you want to unmerge.
  3. Open the Table menu.
  4. Select Unmerge cells.
