What's Changed

• Added fit-spans option to tablex and cellx (https://github.com/PgBiel/typst-tablex/pull/111)
  • Accepts (x: bool, y: bool). When set to (x: true), colspans won't affect the sizes of auto columns. When set to (y: true), rowspans won't affect the sizes of auto rows.
  • Defaults to false, equivalent to (x: false, y: false), that is, colspans and rowspans affect the sizes of auto tracks (columns and rows) by default (expanding the last spanned track if the colspan/rowspan is too large).
  • Useful when you want merged cells (or a specific merged cell) to "fit" within their spanned columns and rows. May help when adding a colspan or rowspan causes an auto-sized track to inadvertently expand.
• auto column sizing received multiple improvements and bug fixes. Tables should now have more natural column widths. (https://github.com/PgBiel/typst-tablex/pull/109, https://github.com/PgBiel/typst-tablex/pull/116)
  • Fixes some problems with overflowing cells (https://github.com/PgBiel/typst-tablex/issues/48, https://github.com/PgBiel/typst-tablex/issues/75)
  • Fixes auto columns being needlessly expanded in some cases (https://github.com/PgBiel/typst-tablex/issues/56, https://github.com/PgBiel/typst-tablex/issues/78)
    • For similar problems not fixed by this, please use the new fit-spans option as needed, or use fixed-size columns instead.
• Several performance optimizations and other internal code improvements were made (https://github.com/PgBiel/typst-tablex/pull/113, https://github.com/PgBiel/typst-tablex/pull/114, https://github.com/PgBiel/typst-tablex/pull/115).
  • Documents with lots of tablex tables might now become up to 20% faster to cold compile. Give it a shot!
• Fixed extra fixed-height rows appearing to have auto height (https://github.com/PgBiel/typst-tablex/pull/108).
• Fixed rows without any visible cells being drawn with zero height (https://github.com/PgBiel/typst-tablex/pull/107).
  • Fixes some rowspans causing cells to overlap (https://github.com/PgBiel/typst-tablex/issues/82, https://github.com/PgBiel/typst-tablex/issues/105).
