Styles for table cells

[anto]

Could you add posibility to save styles applied to table cells?

[carl123]

What sort of "styles"?

Text Styles or row/column/cell Fill/Stroke styles or something else?

or Fill/Stroke styles

Yes, this.

For example, i want to change color or stroke of these cells. Right now i do not know how to do it without selection each cell.

The Table Formats panel should be able to do that for you and then let you save your fill/stroke "patterns" as different "presets" (Table Formats)

I tried it. Seems it does not work.

[carl123]

Seems to work here fine

Can you supply a basic Publisher document with a Table setup with the Fills (just colours, no data needed) you require and I'll see if I can create a preset from it

Here is

Not sure exactly what you are trying to show me but if you just want to change the colour for the crossword's input boxes, why not just use a recolour adjustment?

The Table Formats panel works quite well for quickly formatting an entire table.  The problem here is that the OP has a specific use case in which formatting needs to be applied differently to specific cells of the table which do not match the calculable patterns which can be used in defining those table formats.

I agree that there is not currently a good solution for applying styles selectively to arbitrary cells.

Thank you. Partly what I was looking for. But you can't change the lines between cells to a different color.

Ah, I forgot about that requirement

OK, try this...

Set up 2 global colours

One for the cell fill and one for the cell border

Format/design the table using those 2 Global colours

Then just edit the Global colours to change the cells fill and stroke colours as required

That should work

I would just convert to curves after the creation(make duplicate)
Now use the vectorfloodfill or the shapebuilder or multiselect and alter the fills and strokes>
Or use the stylepicker.

I wouldn't even use a table for this.
Just use the quickgrid and add the numbers on top.
