Merge Cells in Tables (Pre-release) (What's New in 2025)
Learn about the new cell merging enhancement in Tables that is available as a pre-release version.
Inventor 2025 introduces a new Merge Cells option. When in Table, select the desired cells, right-click and select Merge Cells.
Cell merges are visible in Excel documents when exporting a general table with cell merges. Note that *.csv and *.txt formats do not support cell merges.
Current limitations:
- General tables, which are driven by an external file, display cell merges from the source file. However, they do not allow modifications to existing merges or the creation of new ones.
- When the table contains merged cells, certain table tools such as Column Chooser, Insert Row, Remove Row, Sort, and Row Visibility are disabled.
- You can't undo merging cells in the Table dialog. Not to apply changes, just click Cancel to close the dialog.
- The value within a cell cannot be aligned.
- Selecting a merged cell does not result in the selection of the entire merged region.
- In order to begin editing a merged region, the top left cell must be selected.
