Table Borders not Displaying on Table Rows

Post by Madeline »

hi,

I've created a table style and have the separators set on all the columns and rows but they are only displaying on the header rows and columns (ie, not between the body rows). As far as I can tell the header row style and body row style are the same in regards to have the separators set so I'm confused why they are not displayed between the rows.

Someone mentioned setting the borders at the cell level but is that only possible on the table itself rather than the table style?

Any pointers appreciated.

Thanks
Madeline

Just to confirm, you're using a table stylesheet rather than a style in your normal stylesheet? Also are you sure you've set your borders in the correct medium? It can be really easy to forget to change the medium.

This is what I have in my table stylesheet for my print medium. Note the setting I've outlined in red.

Thanks. We're only producing print output at this stage so that's what our default medium is set to. I did try changing it to print to see if that changed anything but still have the same problem. My table is printing as shown in the attached file so most of the borders are displaying but not the rows between the body rows despite having the following set in my table stylesheet:

mcTableBodyStyle
{
span: 98;
separator-style: solid;
separator-width: 1px;
name: Body1;
id: 1;
text-align: left;
type: Automatic;
cell-content-style-class: TableText;
cell-padding-left: 5px;
cell-padding-right: 5px;
cell-padding-top: 5px;
cell-padding-bottom: 5px;
cell-content-style-tag: none;
}

Hi Madeline, try changing the border color of the orange cells.

Thanks - support solved it for me - it was easy after all. Changed the repeat from 98 rows to 1 row - the separator was only repeated every 98 rows. I thought it would repeat after each row not the entire pattern.
