Default How to insert a diagonal line across multiple cells in a Table?

Hi Everyone,

Wondering is it possible to insert a diagonal line across multiple cells of a Word Table using built-in Table Feature just as the second image below? (I inserted it by using the drawing tool instead of the built-in Word Table feature, which I consider as quite inconvenient to adjust the line to connect to the diagonal points of the table; if I use the "Diagonal Border" feature, it'd only insert a diagonal border across each cell as show in the first image)





Many thanks!

For the second version, you can simulate the effect by doubling the horizontal cell count and hiding the unwanted extra horizontal borders. You can't just have a diagonal line across the table, though, other than via the use of a line shape.
