Table Fields

[Eric Chatonet]

Hi Tim,

Table fields in Rev stay not too much documented and, to be frank,  
don't work as well as expected. May be in a next version :-)
In the meantime, you might be interested in a tutorial "How to manage  
table fields" you will access thought "Tutorials Picker" a free  
plugin that interfaces with the So Smart Software website in order to  
display all available tutorials directly from the web.
You will find it by going to http://www.sosmartsoftware.com/.

Best Regards from Paris,

Eric Chatonet.
