How do I shade a cell in my table?
- Click within the cell or select the cells you wish to shade.
- Click to display the ‘Table Tools, Design’ ribbon.
- Click the ‘Shading’ button.
- Choose a colour from the list displayed.
NOTE: Choose ‘No Color’ to remove the shading.
Is ’White Colour’ the same as ‘No Color’?
No. When you ‘white colour’ the cell it is filled with white, therefore anything placed behind it will not be visible. When ‘No colour’ is selected the background is transparent therefore anything behind will still be seen.
