The implementation of style sheets was a huge improvement in InfoQube.  However other programs are still able to do better tables.  The implementation of tables in InfoQube is good, cell borders can be dragged about to re size the table and amny formatting commands are available.
 
But many other programs allow the cell background colour to be set for each cell.  This is not the same as setting the background colour for the text in the cell.
 
Consider the following image taken from InfoQube :-
 
 
The text 'second column' has had it's background colour set to green, you will observe that it does not cover the whole cell.
 
I have edited the top row HTML code to set the background to a linear gradient, this is not complex to do but I feel that it ought to be included in the capabilities of the program rather than the user having to code in HTML.
 
The edited code for this table is :-
 
<div><table width="80%" bordercolor="#111111" style="border-collapse: collapse;" cols="2" border="2" cellpadding="3"><tbody><tr style="background: linear-gradient(lemonchiffon, navajowhite);"><td>Some Text</td><td>In a table</td></tr><tr><td>Second row</td><td><font style="background-color: rgb(204, 255, 204);">second column</font></td></tr><tr><td><div>Facebook Row</div></td><td></td></tr></tbody></table></div>
 
In which I have altered <tr> to <tr style="background: linear-gradient(lemonchiffon, navajowhite);">

Sorry to keep on being a thorn in your side Pierre but the presentation of pages has improved such a lot in the past week or so that other parts need to be improved to keep up. :)

Hi Paul,
 
Thanks for being on my back all the time...
 
Agreed that the Doc pane editor still needs quite a few improvements, image resize and table/column/row/cell properties are two of them.
 
I have however more urgent things on my plate right now....
 
After the (now nearly completed) web hosting change (noticed the new, more appropriate, domain name ?), I must return to the Calendar UI changes to support multiple calendars.
 
Improved tags is also something I'd like to work on soon. It will be huge !!
 
p.s. In case you didn't know, You can convert a note into MHT format and use the excellent and free Blocknote.net editor. Pressing F2 while in the Doc will open it.

It's OK I can keep on tweaking the code manually.
