Depending on what you want to do with the TextureRect nodes a Tree node may be an alternative. Its somewhat limited, not very well documented and kinda hard to use. But for a simple table it works well enough.

Are you interested in how to create this setup with a script instead of adding all the nodes by hand? Then remove the HBoxContainers and all of their children and use the following code instead


func _ready() -> void:
	const ROWS = 3
	const COLS = 20
	var root := $VBoxContainer
	for row in range(ROWS):
		var row_container := HBoxContainer.new()
		root.add_child(row_container)
		for col in range(COLS):
			var cell := TextureRect.new()
			cell.texture = preload("res://texture.svg")
			row_container.add_child(cell)
