Screenshot of Table Properites

When importing a Word document that contains a table, the table extends beyond the right margin.

I have to manually go into Table Properties and select AUTOMATIC vs FROM LEFT to correctly align the table within my margins.

Is it possible to add an option to configure table alignment?

I have added a screenshot of the issue.

Sincerely,

Kevin Johnson

To clarify, I am asking for the option to change the alignment option under Table Properties from “From Left” to “Automatic”, or any other preference.

I recommend this option should be located under Option>LibreOffice Writer>Table.
