gDoc 1x1 table converts to Code Block

Open Hasimir0 opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

As the title says, I have a gDoc with several 1x1 tables. The conversion translates them into code, which strips the text of all formatting and creates a non-wrapping text block.

Is there a way to fix/work around this?

When I first created this tool at Google, there was an internal add-on (similar to the popular Code Blocks add-on), which converted single-cell tables to code-block formatting. I believe Code Blocks does the same thing. I do not want to change this behavior for all users. Docs to Markdown honors that convention for compatibility.

What are you using single-cell tables for? -- just curious.

In the original document I used 1x1 tables as boxes to highlight text, usually when providing an example or an explanation note :)
