Hi,

I try to rotate a long table with reflow like this:

#set page("a4")

#rotate(-90deg,
reflow: true,
table(
    columns: (9.09%, 9.09%, 9.09%, 9.09%, 9.09%, 9.09%, 9.09%, 9.09%, 9.09%, 9.09%, 9.09%),
    stroke: none,

    table.header(
      repeat: true,
[mpg], [cyl], [disp], [hp], [drat], [wt], [qsec], [vs], [am], [gear], [carb],
    ),
[21.0], [6], [160.0], [110], [3.90], [2.620], [16.46], [0], [1], [4], [4],

but it cannot be breakable. You can try yourself here https://typst.app/project/rKfJ6xBCcf5fJ05DHY09gX

If you want the table rotated on its side, another option is to rotate the page. Done this way, the table breaks onto a new page properly.

Put this before your table:

#set page("a4", flipped: true)

and this after (a new page will begin here)

#set page("a4", flipped: false)
Your example, modified 
#set page("a4", flipped: true)

#table(
  columns: (1fr,)*11,
  stroke: none,

  table.header(
    repeat: true,
    [mpg], [cyl], [disp], [hp], [drat], [wt], [qsec], [vs], [am], [gear], [carb],

Thanks for your solution, but I prefer the rotate table solution. The rotation of the whole page works well but it is not match the template guideline of my thesis.
