Default text in tableformat?

[Kees_van_de_Wal]

Hi,

Is it possible to put text in a tableformat? This should make it possible to insert a table where the table heading is already filled, with default text.

Kind regards,

One way you could kludge it would be to load the TableTitle para format with an auto-number string that includes your default text.

A slightly more clunky way would be to have users import a pre-configured table with Import > File > Copy.

And if you wanted to be elegant, you could automate the previous copy-in method with a FrameScript on a hot key, so they wouldn't know what was happening.

Check out the Auto-Text plugin from http://www.siliconprairiesoftware.com/.

It lets you create a table that is as complete as you want. You can them pop

it in with a couple of keystrokes. The plugin is useful for so much more,

too.
