Hello, in InDesign, how can i add divider line (maybe 2pt weight line) between rows instead of these empty rows? i don't see the option in table options, please help. Thank you.

Correct answer Dave Creamer of IDEAS

Personally, I would use a cell style. An empty row could move to the next page if the table splits across pages and you might not want to start withthat at the top of the page.

Also, empty rows are not allowed in accessible documents, so best to avoid them completely.

PS: I LOVE working with tables in InDesign! 😁

Add a stroke to either the bottom of the cells in one row, or to the top of the cells in the next, or both...
