Setting table properties with help of scripts

[abhijeett89122812]

I have of 400 to 500 tables in indesign file, I have to set  below properties for tables

  and row width

is there any way to save such table properties and can be used to other tables or any script for the same...

thanks in advance...

yes you can do this easily.

define paragraph style with name "Paragraph Style 1" and character style using script or manually.

to apply this property in all table use

var doc = app.activeDocument;

var cellStyle = doc.cellStyles.add({name:"newCellStyle",appliedParagraphStyle : "Paragraph Style 1"})

doc.textFrames.everyItem().tables.everyItem().cells.everyItem().appliedCellStyle = cellStyle;

var doc = app.activeDocument;

var paraStyle = doc.paragraphStyles.add({name: "newParaStyle"});

with(paraStyle)

{

    pointSize= 7;// for font size

    justification = Justification.LEFT_ALIGN;

    leftIndent = "0.5 mm";

    rightIndent = "0.5 mm"

}

var cellStyle = doc.cellStyles.add({name:"newCellStyle",appliedParagraphStyle : paraStyle});

var tableStyle = doc.tableStyles.add({name: "newTableStyle"});

with(tableStyle)

{

    bodyRegionCellStyle = cellStyle

    headerRegionCellStyle = cellStyle

}

doc.textFrames.everyItem().tables.everyItem().appliedTableStyle = tableStyle;

doc.textFrames.everyItem().tables.everyItem().rows.everyItem().width = 50;//here you can specify your width
