tblLook (Table Style Conditional Formatting Settings)

This element specifies the components of the conditional formatting of the referenced table style (if one exists) which shall be applied to the current table. A table style can specify up to six different optional conditional formats [Example: Different formatting for first column. end example], which then can be applied or omitted from individual tables in the document.

This element's value is hexadecimal code containing a bitmask of options, interpreted as follows:

0x0020=Apply first row conditional formatting

0x0040=Apply last row conditional formatting

0x0080=Apply first column conditional formatting

0x0100=Apply last column conditional formatting

0x0200=Do not apply row banding conditional formatting

0x0400=Do not apply column banding conditional formatting

If omitted, the bitmask of table style options on the current table shall be assumed to be 0000.

[Example: Consider a table which shall use the following conditional formatting properties from the referenced table style:

First row conditional formatting

Last row conditional formatting

This table would then apply the following portions of the bitmask:

0x0020=Apply first row conditional formatting

0x0040=Apply last row conditional formatting

0x0200=Do not apply row banding conditional formatting

0x0400=Do not apply column banding conditional formatting

The resulting WordprocessingML would be specified as follows:

<w:tblPr>
<w:tblLook w:val="0660"/>
</w:tblPr>

The tblLook element specifies a bitmask which determines the components of the table style applied to the current table. end example]

Attributes

Description

val (Two Digit Hexadecimal Value)

Specifies a value specified as a two digit hexadecimal number), whose contents are interpreted based on the context of the parent XML element.

 

[Example: Consider the following WordprocessingML fragment:

 

<w:tblPr>

<w:tblLook w:val="0010" />

</w:tblPr>

 

The value of 0010 is interpreted in the context of the parent element. end example]

 

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_ShortHexNumber simple type2.18.86).

The following XML Schema fragment defines the contents of this element:

<complexType name="CT_ShortHexNumber">

   <attribute name="val" type="ST_ShortHexNumber" use="required"/>

</complexType>
