Cannot change the table formatting

I have a really weird problem with a table. So, I copy and paste two tables to Excel in Indesign. In fact, they have two different selections of cells in the worksheet — not only the same Excel file, but the same spreadsheet (tab) in this file.

One of them, Indesign let me change what I wanted. Fonts, lines, fills, text color, you name it. Everything I did worked as expected on the first try.

The other has remove me my hair in frustration, because I do the exact same things and nothing not happens. In particular, no matter what I do - be it with cell styles, table styles, or simply by selecting certain cells and manually apply a swatch - there always even fills in Excel. I can't even get rid of the old fillings (for example by replacing with 'none' or 'paper'), much less to add new ones. A few other changes work and some don't, there is no obvious reason. As I could possibly change the color of the text in the header row, but it took about five tries and I swear to you that I didn't do anything different the fifth time compared to the first four.

The only thing I've done in the meantime was to create a cell style.

What might make the difference here, and more importantly, what can I do about it?

There are a few things that I usually do by bringing Excel worksheet data that do not seem to work properly. Before you apply styles, or styles of table cells - delete all replacements.

  1. Select the Table.
  2. In the Panel of cell Style, click the clear overrides in selection button
  3. Then in the Panel Style of Table, do the same and start applying table or cell styles.

Usually makes things less capricious ;-)

  • Cannot change the table in a layer [was: another weird One]

    I created www.ccahv.com with Dreamweaver MX and now seeks to update with Dreamweaver CS3.  The buttons are in a table on a layer to easily copy, but I can't change the table to add a button.  Impossible to insert an image.  The pages are modified by a Secretary with Frontpage 2000.  Who would have something to do with it.  I am sure that I've updated these pages in June and October with the CS3 version.  I am at a loss.  Help!

  • Cannot change the table of Contents Page icons in RH10

    I adapted successfully table of Contents Page icons in the previous versions, but in RH10, option seems to be missing. After past the method as well as help boards & Forums, I have pod TOC page right-click, choose Properties, Advanced tab, but once there all I see are the image and comment options. There is no option to change the icon of the automobile to a different style in a drop-down list (because I expected to see under Advanced). My OS is Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit. Either by the way, I used this feature in the past to indicate a subject that has new features or topics of a different nature.

    Hello

    I have RH10 in front of me at the moment, so I paint entirely from memory on this.

    When you look at your single Source Layouts pod, which is the main provision on?

    If it is not configured for Microsoft HTML Help, find this layout and right click. Then propose that it be the main provision. Once you do this, I'd be willing to bet a dollar against a doughnut that you will now see the option to change the icons.

    See you soon... Rick

  • Cannot change the Underline format

    Howdy.

    I have a file of a previous Designer, and I can't understand how they style a title appear with a thin underscore that extends the width of the text box. See screenshot below.

    Screen Shot 2015-08-26 at 5.04.43 PM.png

    I need to change the color of the yellow line to match the green text.

    I've looked through paragraph Styles and others and cannot find any reference to this yellow underscore, and they are not of the individual forms behind the text box.

    Any help or advice about where to find these options is greatly appreciated! Thank you

    It is a net of subsection (below, as opposed to the front, then click the menu drop-down).

  • You cannot change the format of the cursor

    Original title: mouse cursor

    Cannot change the format of the cursor; message says no file found - for example, C:\WINDOWS\Cursors\arrow\_rl.cur

    _rl.cur is not a slider that comes with XP. Nor is the folder named arrow. You must have installed a 3rd slider party system and I guess you are trying to change that.
    Try to reinstall it.

    The detailed error message is as follows:

    Cause: An attempt was made to use a date expression whose format does not fully
    (i.e. day, month, and year (including century)) specify a date as a partition bound
    for a DATE column. The format may have been specified explicitly (using TO_DATE()
    function) or implicitly (NLS_DATE_FORMAT).
    
    Action: Ensure that date format used in a partition bound for a DATE column supports
    complete specification of a date (i.e. day, month, and year (including century)). If
    NLS_DATE_FORMAT does not support complete (i.e. including the century) specification
    of the year, use TO_DATE() (e.g. TO_DATE('01-01-1999', 'MM-DD-YYYY') to fully
    express the desired date.

  • Microsoft Movie Maker - cannot change the length of each clip.

    Cannot change the length of each clip on Microsoft Movie Maker.

    I clicked on 'tools', then 'options' in Microsoft Movie Maker after importing my media and organize my clips as the way I would like it. When I then click on the "Advanced" tab, image duration shows only 5 seconds with the transition period only 1.25 seconds, which is the default setting and that is also what I want. However, when I play my project in Movie Maker, it accelerates through each clip. I also noticed that when I press the title of 'Clip' in my headings at the top left and then click on 'Properties', the duration of each clip shows that only 00:02 seconds. Which is why my speed clips too quickly.

    I would have thought that setting my time of duration in the Tools section would then set in the Clips section, but this is obniously does not. I don't understand why everyone would show differently and wonder if you can help me to slow down the speed that my movie is playing.

    Thank you

    ================================
    The change of setting to: Tools / Options /.
    Advanced... tab applies only to the added clips
    to the timeline * after * you change the setting.

    If you switch to view "Storyboard" and select
    all of the clips as a batch (select one and the type...
    CTRL + A)... you can add the 'Speed Up, Double.
    or "Slow down, half" effect of changing the
    duration. Simply select all clips / right click
    the effect on the menu... Choose...
    Add to storyboard table.

    'Speed Up, Double' cuts the duration of half.

    "Slow Down, half ' double life.

    These effects can be added up to six times.

    If you need finer adjustment...
    the info may be useful:

    You can change the duration for each clip
    manually. Move your pointer autour the
    edge of an element until you see a double red
    arrow. Now, drag the double red arrow...
    you will see if show a ToolTip displays the duration
    train to change.

    Or... just to redo the project after changing
    the long-term: Tools / Options / Advanced
    tab.

  • Change the DATE FORMAT in a data store

    I created a few projects with the help of a Teradata technology using tables that allow to CREATE_TARG_TABLE the Yes option.

    Model / data store, there are DATE fields, but I can't change the DATE FORMAT, change the field.

    When the process starts and creates the table in the database, create using FORMAT of DATE "AA-MM-DD" and I would like to create as "YYYY-MM-DD".

    Y at - it a step that I am doing wrong, to be able to change the DATE FORMAT?

    From already thank,

    Hello

    --> Physical Architecture topology--> Teradata--> data types, create a new data type (or modify the existing DATE data type), then set it to the desired format of the syntax 'Create Table' and 'Format data type accessible writable.

    That is to say DATE FORMAT "YYYY-MM-DD".

    Then all your tables created will use this format. (I just tested it, it works).

    Let us know if you have any problems.

    See you soon

  • Good for laptop - cannot change the ISP; keep returning to a previous provider

    Windows 7 laptop of my grandson, I'm migrating FIREFOX (excellent resource!) of my aging XP desktop. An existing Mozilla installation on the guarded device tries to connect to an ISP in Sydney (1000km) which kept out, I guess because the signal is too weak. Too far - on the Internet?

    Reinstalled my new ISP contact, reinstalled a fresh copy of Firefox, copied the old profile XP (just underneath the random string file name), but cannot change the fault. Firefox at startup tries to raise the old ISP (Sydney) and expires, and then allowing me to establish a manual connect with the ISP (my current) new.
    Perhaps a clue: in my Firefox troubleshooting info, change preferences, the browser start page is the address of 'old', with 'override mstone' ignore, what look like prints of registry entries, but I can't change all that - and maybe it's wise! An annoying secondary question: on arrival, the laptop listed no administrator user. So I am me came as an administrator, but I wonder if a past or current even Admin hidden could register (or other) entered resistant to change.

    Late discovery: the laptop is apparently infected with browser pirate btsearch.name. Search Google throws a series of removal procedures, and I'm now working through them.
    What Miss me?

    Sometimes a problem with Firefox can be a result of malware installed on your computer, you may not be aware of.

    You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:

    Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one.
