Row height can increase with this option, with the table always growing downward. The total table height is never reduced by this option.

This option is similar to first minimizing row height for selected rows by using Minimal Row Height and then distributing those rows by using Distribute Rows Evenly, except that additional height is added to each row if necessary to prevent the total table height from reducing.

## Add

Sets additional spacing between the largest character in a row and the cell boundaries.

## Default value

Restores the default value for the optimal row height.
