Users can automatically expand the table range by adding data or using copy-paste, drag-fill, and drag-drop actions. Depending on the action, a new table column will be inserted to the right of the table or a new table row will be added below the last row.
1. Add data immediately to the right of a table column or after the last table row.
2. Paste data that exceeds the current table range.
3. Drag fill from a table range.
4. Drag drop a range to table range.
You can disable/enable the auto expand function by using allowAutoExpand.
You can also get the toggle state of auto expand by this API.
