Insert table

QElectorTech 0.7 does not have any `tool`_ or `menu`_ item which creates tables with the 
number of rows and columns desired automatically. QElectroTech allows importing HTML text, this 
is the way to create tables. 

    1. Select icon **Add textfield** |textfield| from the `toolbar`_.
    2. Click on the area from the `workspace`_ where the table should be created.
    3. Right click on text field and choose **Edit the text field** option.

    4. Choose the **source** tab from the `text field editor`_.

    5. Copy the ``html`` code generated by the HTML Table Generator.
    6. Choose the **Rich Text** tab from the `text field editor`_.

    7. Fill the headers and cells with the corresponding information.
    8. Press **OK** button and the table will be created at the `workspace`_.

.. note::

   If the `toolbar`_ is not displayed, it can be displayed from **Settings > Display > Add**.

The table can be `moved`_ and `rotated`_ over the folio area like a `text field`_, it is a `text field`_ object. 

.. note::
