Hi all!

I have a problem while operating a table within the Pages app.

The problem is as follows:


When I add* a new row to the table, all the previous rows are getting squeezed.

What I tried to do:
- copied the table to a new Pages file (in case there is some corrupted metadata in the file),
- exported it as the old Pages '09 format and tried to open it again,
- opened the file on two different computers (but it's worthless since both of them have the same, latest, Pages version).


The file is available here: https://send.tresorit.com/a#mnPp7i2rfMGe1y9c4Oc-Ew

I'd appreciate any help ;-)

*the way of adding new rows is irrelevant; the same happens when I add a new row by:
- pressing tab on the last cell,
- right sidebar,

- context menu on the latest row number.

With the table selected, in Format > Table, is Resize rows to fit cell contents checked?

Wow, thanks. It solved it, but I still don't understand its logic.

Why adding another row should change the height of the previous rows.

And when it gets messed up, and I click Fit to cell content, it fits to 0.71 cm, but when I have it checked, the new rows are as previous 0.8 cm.

But anyway, thank you very much for the solution!
