# 5.5. Formatting data

Inforiver provides a variety of options to tailor your data table. Let's explore them.

### 1. Changing the font and style

You can customize how your data is displayed using the options in the **Style** sectio&#x6E;**.** To change the appearance of a particular column, row, or cell - select it, then apply formatting. You can emphasize specific data points using these options.

### 2. Showing or hiding measures

Select the measure and click on the hide icon to remove it from the table. You can display hidden measures again from the **Measure Series** configuration, which we'll discuss in upcoming sections.

### 3. Arranging data

You can use the fit mode options to arrange your data according to the content, according to the canvas, or fit the maximum possible data in the available space.

{% hint style="info" %}
The Fit mode options will be applicable only if Trellis layout>Responsive Grid is enabled.
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.inforiver.com/analytics+/working-with-analytics+/5.-tables/5.5.-formatting-data.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
