Examples

This example demonstrates getting effective fill format for different table logic parts. Please note that cell formatting always has higher priority than row formatting, row - higher than column, column - higher that whole table. So finally CellFormatEffectiveData properties always used to draw the table. The following code is just an example of API.

[C#]
using (Presentation pres = new Presentation(@"MyPresentation.pptx"))
{
    ITable tbl = pres.Slides[0].Shapes[0] as ITable;
    IFillFormatEffectiveData tableFillFormatEffective = tbl.TableFormat.GetEffective().FillFormat;
    IFillFormatEffectiveData rowFillFormatEffective = tbl.Rows[0].RowFormat.GetEffective().FillFormat;
    IFillFormatEffectiveData columnFillFormatEffective = tbl.Columns[0].ColumnFormat.GetEffective().FillFormat;
    IFillFormatEffectiveData cellFillFormatEffective = tbl[0, 0].CellFormat.GetEffective().FillFormat;
    /* Output and comparison */
}
