How to define the the height of the csv table in reStructuredText?

Question

I\'m using this code to create a table from csv for my documentation in readthedocs:

.. csv-table:: Markram et al. Model & Network configuration file
   :fi         


        

Answer 1

Immediately before your .. csv-table directive, put this above with a blank line separating (see https://stackoverflow.com/a/46195021/2214933):

.. rst-class:: table-myclass

.. csv-table:: blah blah blah

The above will apply a class name to the rendered HTML table.

Then in your Sphinx theme, add a custom style. Assuming you want to limit the height of each table row (not the table itself since 100px is pretty short for a lot of data) put the following:

table.myclass tbody tr {height: 100px;}

Adjust the CSS selector and style to taste.
