Clipping of InDesign table

[asaxena]

Hi,

I have a InDesign table that I want to be able to clip as per the yellow highlighted bounding frame. The overset indicator on the bottom is correctly clipping the table rows, but on the column it is not. Is it possible to do so in InDesign and if yes, how do I achieve it?

The use case is to print only the specific parts of the table

Thanks,

That's the way tables behave. You'll need to cut the frame holding the table and paste it into another frame to accomplish what you want.

When I select the frame in which the table was placed, I get only "Fit Frame to Content" option. Can you please suggest the exact steps that I need to follow?

You need two frames. Cut the frame containing the table. Draw a new frame and paste the other one into it.

Ok. I was able to make it work by using "Paste Into". Thanks.
