# Class Table

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `Animation, Editable, StyleListener, Iterable<Component>`

public class Table extends Container

The `Table` class represents a grid of data that can be used for rendering a grid of components/labels. The table reflects and updates the underlying model data. `Table` relies heavily on the `com.codename1.ui.table.TableLayout` class and `com.codename1.ui.table.TableModel` interface to present its UI. Unlike a `com.codename1.ui.List` a `Table` doesn't feature a separate renderer and instead allows developers to derive the class.

    Form hi = new Form("Table", new BorderLayout());
    TableModel model = new DefaultTableModel(new String[] {"Col 1", "Col 2", "Col 3"}, new Object[][] {
        {"Row 1", "Row A", "Row X"},
        {"Row 2", "Row B can now stretch", null},
        {"Row 3", "Row C", "Row Z"},
        {"Row 4", "Row D", "Row K"},
        }) {
            public boolean isCellEditable(int row, int col) {
                return col != 0;
            }
        };
    Table table = new Table(model) {
    @Override
        protected Component createCell(Object value, int row, int column, boolean editable) { // (1)
            Component cell;
            if(row == 1 && column == 1) { // (2)
                Picker p = new Picker();
                p.setType(Display.PICKER_TYPE_STRINGS);
                p.setStrings("Row B can now stretch", "This is a good value", "So Is This", "Better than text field");
                p.setSelectedString((String)value); // (3)
                p.setUIID("TableCell");
                p.addActionListener((e) -> getModel().setValueAt(row, column, p.getSelectedString())); // (4)
                cell = p;
            } else {
                cell = super.createCell(value, row, column, editable);
            }
            if(row > -1 && row % 2 == 0) { // (5)
                // pinstripe effect
                cell.getAllStyles().setBgColor(0xeeeeee);
                cell.getAllStyles().setBgTransparency(255);
