Hi, In theory it should be very easy to manage with choosing correct 'Stoke drawing order' in the 'Table Options' dialog or table style options. But in practice if we choose 'Row Strokes in front', we can get the same result as in your example: And if we choose 'Column Strokes in Front' option, we can get better looking alignment, but there is a different problem with drawing dots on the intersection, as on a screenshot below: In case if you are not using table styles, it also depends on which of the settings has been applied later manually in the Stroke panel, strokes for vertical or for horizontal lines. But I can suggest some workaround here, if it's really important and you have some time for doing that. In case if you familiar with the 'Anchored objects' term it will be easier to understand and use. At first you need to download this IDML file from dropbox and open it in InDesign. Then in the first cell of the table you have to find a little symbol of the anchored object (¥) and copy it. This anchor symbol can be pasted in any table of any document and it should always add horizontal border line below the row. Just paste it right before the text into every single cell of the first column. In case if table is huge it may take some time. So now we can even remove strokes from all horizontal borders of the table, but this horizontal lines should stay and should be always upper than vertical table borders for well looking intersections. It is also very easy to manage, because all the settings of this lines can be changed in object style named 'Table row strokes': — width of the line can be changed in the 'Size and Position' options, and it should be the same as width of the table; — Y offset can be changed in the 'Anchored object' options, and should be the same as cell insets; — and of course color in the 'Stroke' section.
