I am attempting to create a table with a two row header that uses a simple template format for all of the styling. The two row header is required because I have headers that are the same under two primary categories. It appears that the only way to handle this within Word so that a document will format and flow with repeating header across pages is to nest a two row table into the header row of a main content table.
In Python-DocX a table cell is always created with a single empty paragraph element. For my use case I need to be able to remove this empty paragraph element entirely not simply clear it with an empty string. Or else I have line break above my nested table that ruins my illusion of a single table.
So the question is how do you remove the empty paragraph?
If you know of a better way to handle the two row header implementation... that would also be appreciated info.
While Paragraph.delete() is not implemented yet in python-docx, there is a workaround function documented here: https://github.com/python-openxml/python-docx/issues/33#issuecomment-77661907
Note that a table cell must always end with a paragraph. So you'll need to add an empty one after your table otherwise I believe you'll get a so-called "repair-step" error when you try to load the document.
Probably worth a try without the extra paragraph just to confirm; I'm expect it would look better without it, but last time I tried that I got the error.
