In the table editor you can now click into the table cells to edit the content in the bottom area. You're also able to use placeholders as well as of free text. Perhaps you need more product information in your table cells. If so you can drag your information easily via drag'n'drop from an article into the text input of the table editor. 
You'll find more information about the text editor in the comosoft newsletter from 05-2010. 
LAGO provides a lot of different standard features to design your table. Columns and rows can be inserted or deleted - new rows will always be inserted above, columns to the left of your current selection. You can combine and split cells or move them with the arrow buttons. To delete the whole cell content use the "delete content" button.

>> Placeholders which no longer have valid content will be removed from copied text components.
If a component is copied from one element to another it is possible that the components placeholders contain specific references to the element / article from which it was copied. In future these invalid placeholders will be automatically updated or removed.
>> Global Element Workflow.
The Global Element workflow provides a workflow where all element variants share the same workflow object and thus are always in the same status. This makes the element workflow simpler when working with multiple element variants since the user receives only one job for the element instead of one per variant.
>> Variant compression in tree view.
When working in LAGO Explorer the treeview within a catalog will also show the relevant information in compressed mode when the 'Show data in compressed mode' option under 'Preferences - Lists' is active.
>> Automatic component creation user defined fields are now evaluated.
Using the Automatic component creation via rules now allows the evaluation of user defined field content providing a specific Media type is selected with the rule definition.
>> Create new object via double click.
When working within the property, article, element or document list it is now possible to access the New dialog simply be clicking on an empty row within the list.
>> Load all Hi-Res images when image type has option "use original in layout" set.
Via the use of a central configuration option it is possible to force the XTension or Plugin to load all Hi-Resolution images from LFS, for image types with the option "Use original image in layout" set, prior to opening the document. Without this option the images will only be downloaded from LFS if they are to be updated within the document.
>> LagoExplorer - Reset all columns in Column Configurator.
It is now possible to reset the changes to the column configuration within LAGO Explorer with the single click of the Reset button in the Column configuration dialog. This makes all columns visible, sets the background color to white and left aligns the content of all columns.

→ The modules are:
The LAGO Explorer contains within the text editor a table editor which can edit text and object tables without the need for layout software. If you choose a component of the type "layout object" or "text box" you're able to load it into the text or table editor by pressing the "edit component text" button.
If you're working in the text editor you can create a new table wherever you want with a single click on the "insert a new table with default size" button. Tables will be displayed as {object} inside of the text editor. Your table will be shown as "table#1" in the overview on the left side of the screen and can be edited by selecting this entry.
To fit the dimension of the table click on the "set table dimensions" button. Here you can define the number of columns and rows.
With a click on the "set table properties" button you're able to edit the properties like table matrix, format or layout. You can also activate the headline or create direct tables based on an existing matrix.
