- * TableView is a layout container for aligning child actors in a grid like layout.
+ * @brief TableView is a layout container for aligning child actors in a grid like layout.
+ *
* TableView constrains the x and y position and width and height of the child actors.
* z position and depth are left intact so that 3D model actors can also be laid out
* in a grid without loosing their depth scaling.
+ *
+ * @nosubgrouping
+ * <h3>Per-child Custom properties for script supporting:</h3>
+ *
+ * When an actor is add to the tableView through Actor::Add() instead of TableView::AddChild,
+ * the following custom properties of the actor are checked to decide the actor position inside the table.
+ *
+ * These properties are registered dynamically to the child and is non-animatable.
+ *
+ * | %Property Name | Type |
+ * |---------------------------|-------------|
+ * | cell-index | Vector2 |
+ * | row-span | float |
+ * | column-span | float |
+ * | cell-horizontal-alignment | string |
+ * | cell-vertical-alignment | string |
+ *
+ * The row-span or column span has integer value, but its type is float here due to the limitation of the builder's ability to differentiate integer and float from Json string.
+ * The available values for cell-horizontal-alignment are: left, center, right.
+ * The available values for cell-vertical-alignment are: top, center, bottom.
