The Table->Cell Options dialog box includes the ability to Apply Cell Style Named In. This allows a field to be defined that contains the name of a cell style.
In addition to this, the field content can be prefixed to apply a specific cell attribute:
| TINT: | Apply a tint value to the cell |
| SWATCH: | Apply a named swatch color |
| TOPSWATCH: | Apply a named swatch to the cells top stroke |
| BOTTOMSWATCH: | Apply a named swatch to the cells bottom stroke |
| LEFTSWATCH: | Apply a named swatch to the cells left stroke |
| RIGHTSWATCH: | Apply a named swatch to the cells right stroke |
| TOPSTROKE: | Apply a stroke weight in points to the cells top stroke |
| BOTTOMSTROKE: | Apply a stroke weight in points to the cells bottom stroke |
| LEFTSTROKE: | Apply a stroke weight in points to the cells left stroke |
| RIGHTSTROKE: | Apply a stroke weight in points to the cells right stroke |
For example, to apply a 50% tint, the field needs to contain “TINT:50”. If multiple fields are specified they can be separated by comma. E.g: TOPSWATCH:Red,BOTTOMSWATCH:Red
