Email output inline table style

jraich · May 8, 2012 5:44PM

Hi,
I'm trying to insert some style format in the email output (body). The message text supports html, but in the Data tab when selecting inline data table, only the max rows parameter is availble. Is there any other possibility to control the styling of the inline table? column size, order, colour, border....
Thanks in advance.

Hi,

It would definitely be possible to add additional formatting options to the inline data table in the email output block. I've reclassified this as an idea, so please give us as much detail as possible as to what options you require, and if anyone else has any other ideas please let us know. Also, remember to vote to give us an indication of how many users would like this feature.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the comment, the main goal here is to give an easy to read report by email with key records, readable by any device: laptop and mobile devices (iphone, ipad, android, BB).
I'd like to have formatting options for: ordering by column, font type & size, columns & rows size, rows or cells colours, table borders.
Tips, ideas or suggestions are welcomed

Hi Jordi,

Could you manage the column ordering prior to the export (using a DataManager block?). With regards to font type+size/column+row size/colours, borders these are all great suggestions.

Chris,
Yes using a Sort block, thanks, this solves the ordering.

Jordi

Welcome!
