Table Style Behavior Between Drawings

[ILoveMadoka]

I have two drawings and each drawing has 2 table styles.

TableStyle1

TableStyle2

and one table created with each style in drawing 1. (2 total)

 

In the first drawing all colors for text and border lines are set to BYLAYER.

In the second drawing, colors for text and lines is different for Title, Header, Data respectively.

The table styles are named the same in both drawings.

 

When i copy the tables from drawing 1 into drawing 2

The first table takes on all the properties set inside drawing 2. (This is my desired result)

the second table, nothing changes at all. 

Can someone tell me what I should look at or change in order to get the desired result with the second table?

Since the style is the same in both tables, I would look at the data in the table. Are the properties of the cells overridden in table 2?

 

Have you tried changing the table style name for TableStyle2 and copying that? Is it possible that "TableStyle2" is actually "Standard"?

 

Hard to give a definitive answer without looking at the actual objects.

Unfortunately, I work in an industry where uploading drawings anywhere can get you fired.
Even a vanillla/harmless drawing will prompt questions if it is being uploaded to an external website..
 

Is appears to me that even if a style is renamed, the style is was created from remains dominant in its working...

They don't "seem" to be overridden in my research.

I know it difficult without seeing.

"Troubleshoot my car problem.."
"Where is your car?"
"At the house..."

 

 

I kinda gave up on it...

One way around the problem if your just after the table style of a current table and not the contents is make a new table style in dwg2 that matches dwg1, you can get the properties of an existing table maybe write a text file then read all the values in dwg2.
