where indent_arg is an indent value specified in 1/5 of a width unit. The width unit is computed from representative characters in the default font for the current table (the EViews table default font at the time the table was created), and corresponds roughly to a single character. Indentation is only relevant for non-center justified cells.

The default values are taken from the settings at the time the table is created.

The cell_range defines the cells to be modified. See Table::setformat for the syntax for cell_range specifications.

To set the justification, provide a valid cell specification:

See Table::setwidth, Table::setheight and Table::setjust for details on setting table widths, height, and justification.

For additional discussion of table commands see “Working with Tables and Spreadsheets”.

See also “Table and Text Objects” for a discussion and examples of table formatting in EViews.
