I have followed the cut and paste into a rounded rectangle, but it seems that because my footer has a colored fill, the square-edge is sitting on top and pushes out. I almost want to place a larger stroke rounded rectangle on top, but then that sort of defeats the purpose of cutting and pasting into. Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Ted

Let’s just face facts. Rounded corner tables in Indesign don’t work successfully!

I tried the “Paste Into” and the table gets pasted too far away from the left edge of the rounded corner box, so there’s a gap. I’m new to ID and was wondering how to fix that.

OOOOrrrr….

1. Copy the table

2. Draw another box with rounded corners.

3. Paste Into the new box with rounded corners

4. Say out loud – “Viola, my work here is done!”

Yes, sadly, the Paste Into feature is still the best option for creating rounded corners on tables.

Thank you David!
That was the easiest trick- (making an empty frame and pasting into) for rounded corners.

I found a quite simple solution for rounded tables. You create your table as you want. Create an empty frame with your choice of corners. Position your corner frame over your table. Cut your table and select your corner frame and “paste into”. I found adding an extra column and extra row allow me to adjust the cells away from the corner effect.
