Where do I find vertical text alignment in table cells in RoboHelp 2019?

@gb92818477 Whilst you are correct, using DIV tags is something beyond the HTML/CSS knowledge of many users so tables have been used for years and I suspect will continue to be.

Besides the RH upd3 for remedy in this case:
Using tables for layout of text and image is never a good idea in HTML.
Please consider working with cascading <div> tags and the according CSS flexbox attribute, as described in CSS Flexible Box Layout Module Level 1 (w3.org)

Thanks Amebr and Peter,

Works fine with Update 3. 

Try applying Update 3.

Try updating to Update 3, which is currently the latest.

I don't really understand what you're saying for 1. and 2. Can you show what you are doing with the second CSS?

1. Yes, the CSS resets, not changing from Top to Middle, but altogether deletes the attribute.

Whereas RH resets to middle.

2. I used a 2nd CSS with just the alignment class and that too doesn't work. Same thing happens, the attribute gets deleted.

3. I have checked the CSS on Explorer and it is not set to read-only.

4. Version is 2020.2.29

The only thing that works is an inline tag in the <td>. But this is not ideal as I have numerous files and tables.

There isn't any inline formatting that would be overriding the style.

So what you are saying is that you open the stylesheet, change the alignment from Middle to Top, save, then close the stylesheet. Then when you reopen the stylesheet the alignment is reset to Middle?

My only other ideas are that the stylesheet is set to read only - you'll have to check that using File Explorer. Or you are on a version of RH that has a bug. What version are you on? You can check under the Help menu.

No source control.

Here is the code.

If the style is not remembering the setting I'm not sure what's going on, as I tried in both RH2019 Update 3 and RH2020.3 and all I had to do was change the table style as illustrated. Maybe the file got set to read only somehow (there's no source control involved is there?).

If it's just the table not correctly displaying the style you defined, perhaps you have inline styling that will override the table style. Can you select a row, switch to Source view and post a sample of code that includes the tr and td tags?

I have done as shown. Please see ics attached. But after I save the top-align in the cell style and exit, it automatically changes back to middle align when I reopen.
