TableBordersBase Class

Defines the base API for classes that implement table borders.

Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor.RichEdit

Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.RichEdit.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Blazor.RichEdit

#Declaration

C#
public class TableBordersBase :
    IPropertyListener<ChangedBordersMask>,
    IPropertyContainer<ChangedBordersMask>,
    IDisposable

#Remarks

The Rich Text Editor component allows you to specify border settings for the following document elements:

Table
The Table.Borders property allows you to access table borders and obtain their settings. Pass a TableProperties object to the Table.ChangePropertiesAsync method to customize table borders.
Table Cell
The TableCell.Borders property allows you to access table cell borders and obtain their settings. Pass a TableCellProperties object to the TableCell.ChangePropertiesAsync method to customize cell borders.

Note

Cell border settings take priority over table border settings.

The following code example customizes table borders:
