Column types

Column types determine how column data is sorted and displayed. By default, column data is treated as a text string sorted alphabetically. When the default behavior is less than optimal for your situation, the Column types parameter can be set specifically. This page describes the behavior of the various types. In addition, numeric types are right aligned and can result in a total row entry. 

The following column types are not supported in the current release:

  • Numeric with data formatting (FF)
  • Float with comma as decimal point (FC)
  • Currency with comma as decimal points (CC)

These column types are expected to be featured in the upcoming release.

columnTypes
Column calculations

When an auto total parameter is selected, this parameter can be used to customize the calculation or text that is shown on the total row. By default, all numeric fields, as specified by column types, are totaled. By specifying a comma separated list of calculation requests, the behavior can be modified using special values for the corresponding column.

The Max and Min Total type is available only for Advanced Tables for Confluence: Server and Data Center.

columnCalculations
Table row styles

Enter a comma separated list of styles to be applied to the specified rows. Each style is made up of one or more properties. The first style is applied to all heading rows determined by the Number of heading rows parameter. The remaining styles are applied to the remaining rows in order with repetition as necessary. A style can be reused for subsequent rows by referring to it using a 1-based numeric reference. Row styles are applied to the table row and participate with other CSS properties to determine the look of an element. In particular, some properties may be overridden by table or element styles or classes.

Example: , background:lightyellow, background:lightblue

rowStyles
Retain row style order after sortingtrueEnable this option to make the row styles correspond to the order in which the rows are displayed on the screen. If not selected, the original style given to a row is retained regardless of where the row lands after sorting.retainRowStyleOrder
Column styles

Enter a comma separated list of styles to be applied to the columns in the specified sequence. Each style is made up of one or more CSS properties (semi-colon separated). If a column is skipped, supply a comma before adding the next columns style. A style can be reused for subsequent columns by referring to it using a 1-based numeric reference. Column styles are applied to the table column and participate with other CSS properties to determine the look of an element. In particular, some properties may be overridden by table, row, or element styles or classes.

Example: background:lightyellow, background:lightblue,1,2,1,2

columnStyles
Column attributes
Enter a comma separated list of values used to modify cell attributes for all cells in a column. The position in the comma separated list corresponds to the column that the values apply to. Each value is a double semi-colon list of attributeName=value pairs to be applied to the column cells.columnAttributes
