Notion Adds Table Cell Merging

Previously, cells in Notion Simple Tables had to stay inside a fixed row and column structure. If you wanted a header row, a group label, or a wider area across columns, you usually had to fake it with empty cells.

Notion now supports merged cells. Select multiple adjacent table cells, open the cell menu, and choose "Merge cells" to turn them into one larger area.

This is useful for comparison tables, schedules, course tables, and explanatory tables. Together with the earlier bullet list support in table cells, Notion Simple Tables are finally becoming more practical for real layout work.
