I am using the Initial Table Format/All Contexts Rule option within my table definition in my EDD to apply the table style. I have tried to change the table in my template using Custom Ruling and Update All with Remove All Overrides. The table looks fine in the template.
When I do the conversion the bottom ruling is back. When I look at the settings in the Custom Ruling dialog box (with the offending row highlighted), everything is From Table except the Bottom. It says Thin and there is an asterisk by the bottom ruling with an explanation saying that it is "Overridden by adjacent cell". I don't recall ever seeing that before.

Lisa, have you tried assigning a table format rather than explicitly formatting the row? -Matt Matt R.

Is anyone familiar with using RW rules to control the row ruling within multiple heading rows? I am able to get the 2nd heading line in with a mix of xml tagging and my rules. What I'm having an issue with is that the first heading row has to have lines at the top and bottom, but the 2nd heading row has the line at the top but not at the bottom. I've looked in every Developer reference I can find and what I have in my rules should be working according to them. Below is a portion of my RW rules. Can anyone save my sanity? element "PartsTableHeadingRow" { is fm table row element; fm property row ruling value is "1"; } element "PartsTableHeadingRow2" { is fm table row element; fm property row ruling value is "0"; } For each cell in the first heading row I have: element "THCELL1" { is fm table cell element "THCELL1"; fm property column number value is "1"; fm property row ruling value is "1"; fm property row type value is "PartsTableHeadRow"; } ..... For each cell in the second heading row I have: element "THCELL21" { is fm table cell element "THCELL21"; fm property column number value is "1"; fm property row ruling value is "0"; fm property row type value is "PartsTableHeadRow2"; } Thank you in advance for any assistance!
