Improving table placements in Google Docs

What’s changing 

Google rolled out improvements to the formatting and customization options for tables of contents and reorganized the options included in the table properties sidebar in Google Docs.

Today, Google is introducing improved table positioning options for documents set in pages format These features add flexibility and control to the layout of tabular text in the Docs app, allowing you to:

• Drag the tables in the document and place them directly where you want them
• Wrap content around a table on a page. Can specify line break direction (left, right, both sides) and margin from surrounding text
• Set a fixed position for the table on the page
• Provide quick layouts to instantly move a table to a preset position on a page

In addition, Google has the import/export of Microsoft Word documents with tables so your documents remain consistent.
