Tables will cut off if they are too wide

I tend to export excel sheets to markdown pretty often, and whenever i paste sheets that are too wide they will not show up on the preview mode. They cut off right at the end, as far as the preview canva will allow.

Thanks for the feedback.

Are your tables wide because of the number of columns, or the content generally?

A bit of both, but columns on top tend to go so far to the right where they are not visible anymore.

Thanks.

I’ve usually found that working with/editing tables that wide is also not a great experience in markdown, especially with automatic table formatting enabled.

For these wider tables, are you mostly just pasting them in, and then doing minimal editing on them afterward?

Correct, i usually just copy paste them in. The formatting seems to be fine. But I would need to test how it would look with tables that go too big.

Realistically, i doubt one would be able to paste a giant table in a pdf. But a shrinked version of a medium table could work? No idea if implementable.

Thanks!

v0.36.1 adds horizontal scrolling for tables in the preview and HTML exports, and shrinking in PDFs.
