Auto fit issue when inserting table into existing document

Hi, I have following problem: I open existing documet and then want to insert table into it (using DocumentBuilder). When I do so, table is fit to window (as in MS Word setting AutoFit to window) but I need it to be fit to content (like using AutoFit to contents). It behaves same even if I set RowFormat.AllowAutoFit to true.

But when I insert table into empty document created with words, everything works fine.

Code is very simle

DocumentBuilder bu = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

bu.StartTable();
bu.InsertCell();
bu.Write(“aa”);
bu.InsertCell();
bu.Write(“bb”);
bu.EndRow();
bu.InsertCell();
bu.Write(“cc”);
bu.InsertCell();
bu.Write(“dd”);
bu.EndRow();
bu.EndTable();

Do you have any idea?

The issue seems tricky. Please hold on - I need one more day for reseacrch.

The issue itself seems to be rather complex, but the following code seems to solve the problem nicely in my test:

builder.RowFormat.ClearFormatting();

builder.RowFormat.AllowAutoFit = true;

builder.StartTable();

builder.InsertCell();

builder.CellFormat.Width = 1;

builder.Write("aa");

builder.InsertCell();

builder.CellFormat.Width = 1;

builder.Write("bb");

builder.EndRow();

builder.InsertCell();

builder.Write("cc");

builder.InsertCell();

builder.Write("dd");

builder.EndRow();

builder.EndTable();
