Dynamic Printing Table layout
Hi all -
So I'm trying to format a table in dynamic printing where every other line is a different color. I thought you could just format the second line in a different color, but it doesn't show up.
How does one get every other line of a table to print in a different color in Carbone?

Hi Fred, try to use the Table Design option in Word. That should work. Attached a screenshot how you could arrange it. Hope this helps... Frank

I'm trying it with the repetition function:
Even though the second row is colored it doesn't print. Which I guess that makes sense it Carbone just takes the first row and duplicates it with new data.
I went through the Carbone help files and they don't mention anything about having different color row color.
I guess I can just gather all of the data for each team in a different set of field names. Then I can color the table colors.

Did you have a look at their template examples? The bidirectional loop template contains a table with 2 colors... so I guess it must be possible.

It has finally taken me this long to find out that was right all along and I just couldn't wrap my wee brain around his answer.
So yes, you have to use Table Styles to have your table print with different colors on odd/even lines. You just can't select a background color.
