I had a quick question regarding the possibility to import an already existing simple table to a manual table.
We realized after opening a separate ticket about responsive tables, that we need to switch to manual tables, but the existing tables have a lot of information.
You can choose a range of cells manually from your Simple Table, then you can paste it, for example if you have an existing Manual Table, and switch to Excel-Like Editor view.
In this view, you will be able to paste values from anywhere else.
Or you can manually try to export values from your Simple Table in a CSV, Excel or Google Sheet, then use that to import for a new Manual Table - or update existing Manual Table.

Hi Bogdan,
It will not be possible to directly 'pick' a Simple Table through the Plugin interface in order to import that data in a Manual Table, per se.
For Manual Tables, you can only pick CSV, Excel or a Google Sheet to import data, or to update existing Manual Tables via file upload.
But there can be workarounds.

I hope that helps.
