Default Format painter Table Cell

Hello there,

I'm trying to copy cell shading from one cell to another using Format Painter.

It seems to only copy the text formats and not the background colour.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Judith

Default Format painter Table Cell

You cannot copy cell shading. Instead, you can use F4 or Ctrl+Y to apply the
shading to more cells immediately after you have applied the shading to one
cell. Both shortcuts repeat your last operation. You can repeat the operation
as many times as you wish.
