org-table-row face

org-table-row face

[Colin Baxter]

I read in ORG-NEWS

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Now, new ~org-table-row~ face is used on the whole table row lines,
including indentation and the final newline. This face, by default,
inherits from ~org-table~ face.

If the new behavior is not desired, ~org-table-row~ face can be
changed to inherit from ~default~ face.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

It most certainly is not desired, at least not by me. However, I find
the remedy opaque: "org-table-row face can be changed from inherit from
default face". What do I actually have to do to achieve this?

Thanks.

Set 'inherit property of the face.
For example, see 51.1.5 Customizing Faces.

Would it help if I add a link to that manual page from ORG-NEWS?

Thanks, so presumably I just use set-face-attribute.

For many/most face aspects, I find the customize interface the easiest
to use.  Simply

M-x customize-face RET org-table-row RET

(and then probably click on "Show all attributes").

You can see that the inherit option is selected if the face has not
previously been customised.

I don't use customize-faces at all. I've now set it in my theme file.

Thanks.

Colin.
