Table Row Properties

In the Table row properties dialog box you can control settings that will apply to a specific row of a table. For instance, if you want to apply red background color to certain rows in a table, you will use the Table row properties dialog box. This dialog box has two tabs, theGeneral tab and the Advanced tab. When you have done your changes to a table row, click Update to save the changes.

General Tab

The General tab contains the following boxes:

Row in table part. Set the number of columns and rows in the Cols and Rows fields.
Alignment. Defines the position of the text in the cells of the table row.
Vertical alignment . Defines the vertical position of the text in the cells of the table row.
Class. Here you can apply preset CSS class settings for a specific table row. Note that you need to define these classes in the CSS files of your site first. Check with your system administrator to find out what applies to your website.
Height. Define a specific height in pixels for a specific row of a table.
Update current row. When you make changes to table rows, you can decide where to apply the changes:
- Update current row (the selected row)
- Update odd rows in table
- Update even rows in table
- Update all rows in table

Advanced Tab

The Advanced tab contains the following boxes:

ID. The ID number for the table row, for accessibility purposes.
Style. In this field you can view the current settings for the table row. This option can be used to set style attributes, overriding values specified in CSS classes. Normally you should use CSS classes, but if you want to apply a special style settings only used on this element, you can use this option.
Language direction. Define a language direction here if this is different from the rest of the table.
Language code. Define a language code here if the content of the table row is in a different language than the page. Enter the standard language code format, for example it (Italian), es (Spanish), en (English) etc.
Background image. You can select a background image to be applied to a table row. Click the Browse button to the right of the field to select an image in the File Manager. Click OK to add the image to the table row.
Background color. You can define a different background color for a table row. You can select colors using the options Picker, Palette or Named, depending on your preferences. Click Apply to add the color selection to the table.

If you are using predefined CSS classes to format tables, rows or cells, be aware that additional formatting added "manually" on top of the predefined formatting, may be overridden and will not apply.
