    Hallo,

    in the table editor dialog one can select several CSS styles for the table design. Is it possible to change these templates? For our scenario it would be great if we could set the style of a table by default and not allow any changes to the initial style.

    I'd appreciate any suggestions on how to accomplish this.

    Thanks,
    Phil

    Hi,

    You can see how to control the appearance of HTML elements in the content area of RadEditor in the following help article and live demo: Setting Content Area Defaults as well in this live demo: Customize Content Area.

    Hi,

    just after inserting a table this table does not have css tags. So there's no way to change the layout of a new table via a custom css file. Is there a way to remove all actions but selection of the table size and insert a default styled table?

    If not, is there a possibility to change the templates offered in the table wizard dialog?

    Thanks,
    Phil

    Hello,

    You can change the templates offered in the Table Wizard dialog through the TableLayoutCssFile property as shown in this live demo: Table Properties CSS Class Layout tool.

    It is also possible to control the HTML inserted by the Table Wizard dialog in the OnClientPasteHtml event of RadEditor.

    All the best,

    I've set the property to
    <property name="TableLayoutCssFile">TableLayout.css</property>

    Then I've created the file TableLayout.css in the folder "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\wpresources\RadEditorSharePoint\6.3.0.0__1f131a624888eeed\Resources" copying the example css information. The result is that in the table manager dialog I have no templates to chose from.

    Hello,

    Set the path like this in the configfile:

    <propertyname="TableLayoutCssFile">/_wpresources/RadEditorSharePoint/6.3.0.0__1f131a624888eeed/Resources/TableLayout.css</property>
