set tabledefaultrulethickness
set tabledefaultrulethickness= dimen
The set tabledefaultrulethickness command specifies the rule thickness for tables in the current document. However, it has no impact on tables whose markup specifies a rule thickness.
This setting applies to all rules in existing CALS and Arbortext tables. It only applies to outer frame rules in HTML tables. Arbortext Editor also uses the tabledefaultrulethickness value as the default border width in the Insert Table dialog box for HTML tables.
Allowable units of measure are:
in — inches (the default)
cm — centimeters
mm — millimeters
pt — points
pi or pc — picas
px — pixels
The default setting is 1pt (one point).
Examples
set tabledefaultrulethickness=25pt
set tabledefaultrulethickness=1pc
You can view changes greater than 1pt in the Edit window.
