Table Styles, one font

I have set up a table style using a paragraph style and cell styles. The header is Lucida Bright 5pt font and the body of the table is Myriad Pro font in 7 point. When I apply the style to a new table, it picks up the Lucida font text formatting only, giving the whole table the Lucida Bright 5pt.
I've tried several time to set it up in the original document, gave up, set the table up in a new document saved the style (it works in the new document) then loaded it into the original document. Same result. I've checked for overrides and there are none. I've even tried it with a new table in the original document and get the same incorrect result. Is there a setting somewhere that I'm missing?

I've had the same problem. The entire table ends up with the paragraph style set to my 'Table Header' style, even the cells in the non-header rows.
I deleted the two paragraph styles, reverting the cell styles back to basic paragraph. Then set the paragraph styles up again outside a table using ordinary body text. And then one by one re-attached them to the table. That seems to have fixed the problem.

Does anyone know how to select text in Appleworks, click on the font button and then be able to scroll thru all the font so that one can see the text change as you scroll down the list, at present I have to do it one font style at a time and then repeat

Welcome to the Apple forums
Your question really belongs in the AppleWorks community/forum.
You can turn on fonts in actual type in the AppleWorks preferences.

How can I combine one font with many styles to show up as one font

How can I combine one font with many styles to show up as one font? I have quite a few fonts, that instead of showing up as a single font with different font styles (bold, bolditalic, semibold, light....) each style shows up in the fonts dropdown menu as a separate font. Any way I can fix this?
Another font question, is there any way to group my fonts in the dropdown menu according to different categories such as 'favorite san serif fonts', or 'script fonts'?

So your saying if it wasn't set up that way be the font creator there is nothing I can do. That's a shame.
Most of the fonts that do this were free fonts, such as Walkway.
But I do have some fonts (hebrew fonts) that I purchased that do the same thing.

InDesign CS3 crashing adding table style...HELP!!

This issue started on Friday. I just starting working on a large document that will have many tables throughout, so I must use the table styles. Here is the order in which I do things to get the crash.
Place document from Word in to InDesign document
Highlight table to be changed
Convert text using paragraph styles
Alter column widths to fit page
Highlight entire table to select table style
Click desired table style
CRASH!!!!
I have tried the following things with NO LUCK:
Deleted adobefntX file multiple times (actually worked for a couple of hours first time I did it)
Deleted InDesign preferences (did nothing)
Re-created all "Styles" in InDesign (Character, Paragraph, Cell, & Table) (Did nothing)
Changed the order in which I altered the tables text and formatting (thinking it was just a silly order problem)
Unistalled and Re-installed CS3 (worked for 5 tables and then CRASH)
Updated ALL software (Adobe and Mac)
Started up in Safe mode and CRASH!!!
I realize from seraching for this problem on the web that I am probably the ONLY person having this issue, but I thought it was a font problem until I started in Safe Mode and still crashed. I am totally confused as to what I should do next. I am running on a
Model Name:    MacBook Pro
Model Identifier:    MacBookPro4,1
Processor Name:    Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed:    2.4 GHz

Memory:    4 GB
Bus Speed:    800 MHz

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

I am not familiar with InDesign Interchange, do you think this will help?
That's why I suggested it. But you didn't answer my question: Is this happening with only one file? The reason I ask is because if one file is corrupted, saving to INX and back to INDD often clears out minor corruptions. If you're seeing this in many files it's unlikely they're all corrupt.
1. Convert text using paragraph styles - I meant modified "placed" text using character styles
Now I'm really confused. Your steps are:
Place document from Word in to InDesign document
Highlight table to be changed
Modify placed text using character styles
Are you really highlighting an entire table and applying a character style? While this will work to modify certain formatting aspects, it's not really the best approach. Character styles are for characters *within* a paragraph. Paragraph styles are for *entire* paragraphs. Each table cell contains at least one full paragraph, even if it's just a single number, a space, even if there's nothing there at all. If you want to format the contents of an entire cell or range of cells with the same formatting, use a paragraph style, not a character style. If you want to italicize one or two words in some text in a cell (the way I just did), then use a character style.
I really feel that the issue either stems from fonts or from placing the document from Word.
Could be. Cheap fonts are the cause of many problems in Indesign. Indesign is really picky about fonts. But let's try the easy fix first (INX). If you don't trust it, save the .inx to a new .indd filename (keep your old .indd file as a backup).

Table style alignment ignored?

TCS 2.0, linking FrameMaker 9 (unstructured) files to RH8.
My FrameMaker files have several one-cell right-aligned tables. I mapped all the tables to a table style called "Product" in RoboHelp.
The table properties in style mapping are set to be right-aligned for this table. However, the table continues to display as left-aligned in the preview and the output.
I am not very knowledgeable about css but decided to edit the css for this table to specify right-aligned.
Here is my css entry for this table style:
table.Product {
        align: right;
        font-size: 10pt;
        text-align: right;
The table is still left-aligned.
Looking at the HTML view for the table, there is this line:
<?rh-align_start align="left" ?>
When I manually change "left" to "right," my table is right aligned and looks the way I want. This rh-align_start property seems to be something that is not in the css or is overriding the css.
I can also right-click on the table and select right-aligned from the table properties, which accomplishes the same thing. However, I have thousands of these tables and need an automated solution.
Is this a RH bug? How can I make this table style right-aligned?
Thanks,
Alexandra

Hi Michael,
that was the solution - thank you for your help! Adjusting this setting (which by the way is named "DisplayUsingPrinterMetrics=On" in my case) resolved the correct line breaking. The maker.ini is full of miracles.

Problem with footer in table style not applying paragraph style... or just me?

I'm having a niggling problem making a table style with cell/paragraph styles for the header, body, and footer respectively. I want to make it as simple as possible for other users but one thing keeps tripping me up. I'll try and describe with screenshots. I'm using InDesign CS5 on Windows 7.
I have a table style set up with cell styles for the header, body, and footer, and paragraph styles for each as well. Say I'm converting a list of generic text to this table:
i convert it to my table style. The body style is a numbered list:
I convert the header to an, err, Header. The cell applies the header paragraph style as I should expect:
I convert the footer likewise, but it maintains the Body text paragraph style as an override!
So naturally I clear the override and it works fine. But of course, I'd rather it acted like the header row. I can't work out where the override on the footer comes from and why it operates differently in this respect to the header row. There is nothing different about how the styles are constructed. Have I made a mistake somewhere, or is this correct behaviour I'm misinterpreting, or something...?

Cutting and pasting tables from one project to another

When cutting and pasting existing tables from one project to
another, the line weights for the cell borders seem to vary at
random - some are the original line weight and some are heavier
when pasted.
I've tried sorting things out with the table properties
dialogue, but to no effect.
Is there a quick fix, or am I better importing in whole
topics and then editing the imported topic?

Hi Colum/Peter,
It's not a custom table, I just need to copy an existing
table from one project to another.
My blasted developers (may the fleas of a thousand camels,
etc), just decided to change the toolbars in one of our
applications. As this toolbar appears in slightly different guises
in about 6 tabs, I was trying to update the table that shows what
icon does what and cut and paste that table into all the sub
projects I have. Each table then only needs a minor edit for a few
icons specific to that sub-project.
Peter's on the right track. When I cut and pasted the table
it also pasted in a number of lines of HTML associated with the
styles in the other project. If I delete those lines, the table
then appears as it should.
Thanks for prompt response

How to update table styles in the new Pages?

Anyone found out how to update table styles in the new Pages? I see it's done in some of the templates that Apple provided, but I can't find it. Also, the Copy table style command is gone, so I can't make my tables look in a uniform way, unless I use one of the built-in styles.
Thanks.

I'm having the same trouble. Looks like no way to create an overal 'table' style and I cannot access the table paragraph styles either.

Table styles in RH don't transfer to Word 2010

In RH, I have defined a table style called top-row-shaded, and have mapped this style for delivery to Word, in word-template.dot file. All RH tables of style top-row-shaded shoud map to my Word template style top-row-shaded, but they don't.
Does anyone kmow a fix?
If not, does anyone have a word macro that can convert my tables to the top-row-shaded style in the Word file?
My RH file has another table style (called no-border) that I don't want to convert, so I can't simply apply the style to all tables in the Word file.
Thanks, Joanne

Without setting up a test, I'm not sure why the tables are not mapping. By all means see the Contact page on my site and send me a one topic project and the Word template. I will take a look but it will be at least a week or so before I can.
Meantime there is a macro on my site that will need editing that will find each table and then allow you to apply changes or skip to the next table.

How to reuse a table style in Numbers 3.0

I can save a Numbers Table Style in one spreadsheet, but I've no idea how to open and use the saved style in another spreadsheet.
When I save the style it shows up in the inspector for that document, but does't appear in the inspector when I open another document.
Am I attempting something that can't be done?

Guillame,
You're right about not being able to add styles, and I have not figured out how to modify a predefined character style, other than to Rename or Delete a predefined style. I have added this to my list of things lost.

Find and replace a table style

I have about 10 table styles in a document and I want to replace all of them with the #1 table style. Can this be done with Find and Replace?

You'll need to do this for each of the Table formats that need to be replaced.
Let's assume the desired format is "Format A" (a default FM style), and one of the formats to be changed is "Specs 2".
Click in any instance of a Specs 2 table.
In the Table Tag field, pull down and click on [Format A].
Click Commands > Global Update Options:
(*) All Properties
(*) All Tagged [Specs 2]
[Update]
If it works properly, you'll get a dialog:
OK to change all Format B tags to Format A?
[OK]
Additional global updates may be required to clean up any overrides.
Trying this on FM7 at home, it didn't always work. I don't know if newer versions are more stable. Personally, I never do it this way (probably because of prior experience), and I usually just hack the MIF.

Separate table title autonumbering for two named table styles?

I believe this very same question whizzed by a few weeks ago but I'm having no luck searching for it.
I have two named table styles. I want the autonumbering for the table titles to be separate. More specifically, one will autonumber as "Table t", while the other will autonumber as "Example e".
I have redefined the autonumbering counter for the second of the two TableTitle para style, and if I apply that style while in that table's title, I get the new autonumbering. But I can't transmit (a) selectively update the Table Title style to this format to other tables in the chapter. By extension, I can't copy the wonderful new table format to other chapters in the book.
I next tried creating a new para style "ExampleTitle", then in the Table Designer trying Update All. Nope, other tables of type example do not receive the new title style.
This is fully-patched FM8. The document is structured but I don't (want to) care about that -- I simply need to get the two different named table styles
to autonumber sequentially.
This is probably pretty easy once I learn the "trick"...(?)
Cheers & thanks,
Riley

Arnis:
Thanks. For some reason I couldn't get my table to update, so I went through and manually create a second table title paragraph style, then manually applied that. (I also created a second x-ref format so that I could x-ref to "Example n:" without including the colon in the x-ref, but that's another story...)
So for now I've worked around the problem. After I get this document out I'll revisit the issue. (Why do I have a vague recollection that there's a known idiosyncracy where FM6+ table styles don't update properly...?)
Cheers & thanks 'gain,
Riley

3EA4 -- can not run SqlDeveloper report to "table" style

The same SqlDeveloper report, which was/is working in 3EA3 - same Oracle user, same privileges, same platform, same connection, same Java version, same same ... can not run the report to the "table" style. It works only with the "Script" style. So, betwen EA3 and EA4 something changed. No work around, just lost capability.
note: I tried many SqlDeveloper reports that were working in the "table" style - none of them works in the "table" style anymore with EA4 - that really is not cool :(
Here is one of those reports:
SELECT
   object_name "Object_Name",
   object_type "Object_Type",
   CASE OBJECT_TYPE
      WHEN 'PACKAGE BODY' THEN 'alter package ' || OWNER||'.'||OBJECT_NAME || ' compile body;'
      WHEN 'SYNONYM'      THEN 'CREATE PROCEDURE ' || OWNER||'.tmp_compile_synonym AS BEGIN EXECUTE immediate ''alter synonym ' || OWNER||'.'||OBJECT_NAME || ' compile''; END tmp_compile_synonym;'||chr (10) || '/'||chr (10) || 'EXECUTE ' || OWNER||'.tmp_compile_synonym;'||chr (10) || 'DROP PROCEDURE ' || OWNER||'.tmp_compile_synonym;'
      ELSE 'alter ' || lower (OBJECT_TYPE) || ' ' || OWNER||'.'||OBJECT_NAME || ' compile;'
   END "Compile_Statement"
FROM dba_objects
WHERE owner=upper(:OWNER)
AND status = 'INVALID'
ORDER BY object_type;Note: Reverted to EA3 until the problem is idenfied/solved

ok, I did update to JDK 1.6_24 , edited the jdk file under .sqldeveloper to point to the correct JDK version and invoked the 3EA4 from the command line:
raisin:~/sqldeveloper3EA4$ ./sqldeveloper.sh -J-Xmx1024m
still having the issue. None of the "table" style reports work.
So, something definitely changed in EA4 that broke the "table" style reports (at least in my case).
I am using the same "thin" connections that I created before (it picked it up from the .sqldeveloper settins). Did anything change for the thin jdbc connection in EA4 compared to EA3 ? I looked at the change list and don't see it there. I saw bug 09883309 reported here: 3.0 final+EA4: Doesn't work with 11.1 OCI/Thick driver , but don't think it has anything to do with the problem I am seeing - I don't use OCI, but jdbc thin. I wonder if there is a problem with 11.2.0.2 jdbc thin in EA4 and my database server version (10gR2 base version on RHEL 4).
But if Jim doesn't have the problem with the same JDK version and "almost" the same platform - maybe the database server version is an issue ? All I know, these reports (table style) was/is working with the EA3 - but not in EA4 .
When I run the report - the execution window does not display anything - all grey - then if I click on the green arrow (go/run) button, I see the following exceptions in the terminal from which I invoked the sqldeveloper:

GTK Styles and Fonts module

Having just got my fonts sorted out in KDE I have set-up a user login for my wife and gone through similar steps to give her a desktop that she can start working with. However, if I go into the KDE Control Centre - Appearance & Themes - GTK Styles and Fonts and then select "Use another font" under the GTK Fonts section and click "Apply", move elsewhere in the Cntrol Centre and then return, my changes have not been saved! I have repeated the process several times (and it works in my own login) but it will not save the option.
Anyone else had this odd behaviour - I assume it must be a bug?

GTK Styles and Fonts duplicate

Hi there. I found a problem after installing gtk-qt-engine. In my LookNFeel menus from Control Center, the option "GTK Styles and Fonts" appears twice. I looked at the installation package and it seems fine.. with only one file in LookNFeel folder (/opt/kde/share/applnk/Settings/LookNFeel/kcmgtk.desktop) and none in my home directory (.kde/...)

yeah i noticed that a while ago too... it's only cosmetics, it does no harm, so why bother...?
