Overview

This page outlines an example of how to style table rows using the CSV Table macro, Table Plus macro, or Attachment Table macro, which are part of the Advanced Tables for Confluence app.

Since release 5.4, there are more capabilities to control table display characteristics. Specifically, setting the table class (default is confluenceTable), table style, and row styles. See Common table capabilities for more details.
