How to style text in a paragraph below a table?

In this example, the tables's source (Fuente:) is very near of the line.

Applying a paragraph style (with space after, for example) is useless.

The temporal solution is inserting a hard return but is a bad idea.

How to manage this?

Thanks.

Why not add space below the table itself? You can save it in the table style, because I'd imagine you have multiple tables in your documentation.

And, I know you are not asking about this, but because I am responsible for so many tables that look like yours, I just want to make sure that you know can add "Fuente" automatically as a paragraph number on the citation, and not have to type it in each time.

Table are my life, and I'm all about getting them done and out the door in the shortest time possible.

Hi BarbBinder,

Yes. Many years in this and this menu was unknown.

It seems that the space after in the table setup must be reduced (half of the body text).

And, yes, the source is indeed a tagged paragraph style, just for the size, neither for the space before as this possibility is negated in the description.

Just a last question: applying the Table Styles style can be done in one step together with «cell styles»?

Thanks, thanks. Many tables, of course.

First of all, I'm glad you found it. And yes, we often need negative numbers to get the correct spacing.

InDesign does let you nest styles. You can assign cell styles automatically when assigning a table style by specifying them here:

Yes, negative numbers!

And alsoI will use the cell styles in that table menu.

Thanks again.
