When I create a table inside of a blank page the fields inside of the table are "Auto Expanding" as I type. Is there a way to size them and make it static instead of having it real small and expand as the I type in that field.
Hi Jim,
Unfortunately tables are only sized to the content and it's not possible to control columns' width.
Perhaps, you can take a look at 'Advanced Tables for Confluence' (paid) add-on by BobSwift to see if they have an option that will allow you to do so.
Cheers!

I have created a user macro that does this.

Oh shoot! I just realized it was tagged as confluence-cloud. If you are using OnDemand then user macros are not an option. Sorry.
