Adding a Quick Style to a Table
PP07S-3.7.2
Instead of changing individual attributes of a table, such as shape, border, and effects, you can quickly add them all at once with the Table Quick Style gallery. The Table Quick Style gallery (New!) provides a variety of different formatting combinations. To quickly see if you like a Table Quick Style, point to a thumbnail in the gallery to display a live preview (New!) of it in the selected shape. If you like it, you can apply it. In addition to applying one of the preformatted table from the Table Quick Style gallery, you can also create your own style by shaping your text into a variety of shapes, curves, styles, and color patterns.
