Hi there,

I'm relatively new here but haven't been able to find any info about this so far so I thought I'd ask here!

I often need to change the tablestyle of the LAFX-SCHEDULE-NPLT (specifically the irrigation/valve schedule) to apply a background fill. I understand how to do this when I need to by entering "tablestyle" into the command bar and modifying the cell styles as I need.
I thought I might be able to do this by creating a new template with my standards already implemented but unless the irrigation schedule is or has been present in the drawing I cannot edit its tablestyle - at least not from the tablestyle command.

I was hoping somebody might know if it was possible to change the default somehow so I could save my office some time. Its a little silly I know, but just something I wanted to try to figure out.

Relatedly, would it be possible in the future for the background fill to apply to the valve callout example that generates at the bottom of the irrigation schedule? As it is I've been drawing a polyline around it, then hatching it with a solid fill, and moving it to the back.

Any help is very appreciated, and you guys are awesome! Thanks!

Michael,

We are not that far away from adding a Header text style, which will have the ability to set a table background color.
But other than that, we don't have any other plans for setting table cell backgrounds.
It can be done in the table style manager, as long as it is to the data type, like Header.

For the valve callout block at the bottom of the schedule, simply edit the source block as desired. It's located in Landfx/blocks/graphics/irrigation/schedule_symbols

Thank you for the tip about editing the source block, completely slipped my mind!

And thanks for the other help!
