Table Cell Formatting dialog
The Table Cell Formatting dialog defines how a particular cell in a table looks. For more
information see "Styling a table" on page762.
All settings in this dialog are in fact CSS properties. Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) were
originally designed for use with web pages: HTMLfiles. Since Designer templates are HTML
files, they are styled with CSS. To learn how to use CSS in the Designer, see "Styling and
formatting" on page741 and "Styling templates with CSS files" on page743. For information
about specific properties and their options, see W3Schools CSS Reference.
Note
Using viewport based units (vw, vh, vmin, vmax) in Print sections is not recommended. This may
cause differences between the preview in the Designer and the printed output.
