Spire.Doc format Table with Custom Document Style

[joachim_eckerl]

Hello everybody,

i tried to insert a table into a docx-Document by searching for a Bookmark and inserting my Table there:

Code: Select all

...open Document...
BookmarksNavigator bookmarkNavigator = new BookmarksNavigator(doc);
bookmarkNavigator.MoveToBookmark(bookmarkName);
bookmarkNavigator.InsertTable(table);
...save Document...


That works fine.

Now i tried to set the Style of my new Table to a custom Style in our given Document. I can find the Style by,

Code: Select all

Spire.Doc.Documents.Style style = doc.Styles.FindByName("CustomStyleName");

but i have no Idea how to set the Style to my table.
I just can set the Style to a DefaultTableStyle from this enum by this:

Code: Select all

table.ApplyStyle(DefaultTableStyle...);

but i want to set the Style to a custom one.

many thanks and best regards,
Joachim

Hello,

Thanks for your inquiry.
Sorry for the turth that our Spire.Doc doesn't support applying a custom table style for table at present. We will consider adding this new feature into our further upgrade, if it is achieved in the future, I will inform you.

Nina

Hello eswaribaskar,

Thank you for your letter.
Please refer to the following example to create a table. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact.

Code: Select all

            Document doc = new Document();
            Section section = doc.AddSection();
            Paragraph title = section.AddParagraph();
            title.AppendText("test");
            title.Format.HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Center;
            title.Format.AfterSpacing = 10f;

            //add table Paragraph style
            string pStyleName = "testStyle";
            ParagraphStyle pStyle = (ParagraphStyle)doc.Styles.Add(StyleType.ParagraphStyle, pStyleName);

            if (pStyle is ParagraphStyle)
            {
                ParagraphStyle ps = pStyle as ParagraphStyle;
                ps.CharacterFormat.FontName = "Arial";
                ps.CharacterFormat.FontSize = 14;
                ps.CharacterFormat.Bold = true;
                ps.CharacterFormat.TextColor = Color.Black;

            }

            //add Table
            Table table = section.AddTable(true);
            table.ResetCells(3, 4);

            table.Format.LayoutType=LayoutType.Fixed;
            table.PreferredWidth = new PreferredWidth(WidthType.Percentage,(short) 100);

            //table data
            table.Rows[0].Cells[0].AddParagraph().AppendText("A");
            table.Rows[0].Cells[1].AddParagraph().AppendText("B");
            table.Rows[0].Cells[2].AddParagraph().AppendText("C");
            table.Rows[0].Cells[3].AddParagraph().AppendText("D");
            table.Rows[1].Cells[0].AddParagraph().AppendText("1");
            table.Rows[1].Cells[1].AddParagraph().AppendText("2");
            table.Rows[1].Cells[2].AddParagraph().AppendText("3");
            table.Rows[1].Cells[3].AddParagraph().AppendText("4");
            table.Rows[2].Cells[0].AddParagraph().AppendText("a");
            table.Rows[2].Cells[1].AddParagraph().AppendText("b");
            table.Rows[2].Cells[2].AddParagraph().AppendText("c");
            table.Rows[2].Cells[3].AddParagraph().AppendText("d");

            // set border
            foreach (TableRow row in table.Rows)
            {
                foreach (TableCell cell in row.Cells)
                {
                    cell.CellFormat.Borders.Left.BorderType = BorderStyle.None;
                    cell.CellFormat.Borders.Left.LineWidth = 0f;
                    cell.CellFormat.Borders.Right.BorderType = BorderStyle.None;
                    cell.CellFormat.Borders.Right.LineWidth = 0f;
                    cell.CellFormat.Borders.Top.BorderType = BorderStyle.Single;
                    cell.CellFormat.Borders.Top.LineWidth = 0.5f;
                    cell.CellFormat.Borders.Bottom.BorderType = BorderStyle.Single;
                    cell.CellFormat.Borders.Bottom.LineWidth = 0.5f;
                    for (int i = 0; i < cell.Paragraphs.Count;i++)
                    {
                        cell.Paragraphs[i].ApplyStyle(pStyleName);
                    }
                   
                }
            }

            // save

Hi Team,

Thanks for your support !

This is my final updated code. Everything is working properly except the Table of Contents. The heading numbers in the TOC are not updating correctly. In the document, the correct heading numbers are generated, but the Table of Contents is not reflecting the correct values.
I have attached my final version of the code and the Word output.
Kindly review and provide a solution to fix this issue.

[Lisa.Li]

Hello eswaribaskar，

Thank you for your feedback.
Yes, I did find that the list number was not updated correctly in the TOC. I have logged this issue into our bug tracking system with SPIREDOC-11692, Our Dev team will do more investigations to resolve it.
At the same time, if I reload the current result and update the TOC, the output can be updated correctly. You can use this temporary solution first, once SPIREDOC-11692 is fixed, we will provide the hotfix version for you.

Code: Select all

       Spire.Doc.Document documentNew = new Spire.Doc.Document();
       documentNew.LoadFromFile(@"ProjectMonthlyReport.docx");
       documentNew.IsUpdateFields = true;
       documentNew.UpdateTableOfContents();
       documentNew.SaveToFile(@"ProjectMonthlyReport-out.docx", Spire.Doc.FileFormat.Docx);
