      Atlassian Update - 22 December 2023

      Hi everyone,

      This is Charlie from the Confluence team. I'm pleased to let you know that we have released support for vertical alignment of table cell content in the Confluence Data Center 8.4 release.

      Bring visual harmony to your tables with the ability to align any type of content to the top, middle, or bottom of a table cell. Select the table content you want to align, then choose the desired alignment in the table toolbar. Those cumbersome workarounds are a thing of the past.

      Kind regards,

      Charlie

      Confluence Data Center

      Especially when merging columns, it would be nice to have the merged cells content aligned vertically.

            We still waiting on that feature for the cloud version !

            How can you release that on Datacenter but not on Cloud when YOU have made it very clear that the Cloud product is the main priority and the future of your product. nonsense.

            @Jake Burgy - Yes, of course, I'm fully aware that Confluence Server is now a discontinued product (which is also VERY UNFORTUNATE). All I'm saying is that, after 11 long years of patient collective waiting for this feature, Atlassian could have at least had the small courtesy to roll it out for both platforms, not only for Datacenter. And, quite frankly, I'm anything but happy about the way Atlassian has been doing business lately. And I know I'm not the only one by far. I know full well that I can't do anything about it, but I can at least let them have a piece of my mind.
