If the table width
were initially set at a pixel value, the cell widths would have been, too. The row height values, on the other
hand, are shown as an absolute measurement in pixels.
You can switch from percentages to pixels in all the table measurements, and even clear all the values at
once, with the click of a button. Several measurement controls appear in the lower-left portion of the
expanded Table Property inspector, as shown in Figure 13-8.
