Hello,

unfortunately we cannot avoid the usage of the (generally unwanted) tables in DOORS as our partners still demand their use.

Receiving new req. documents it would be beneficial to able to identify changed table cells at a glance.

While the diff. detection is not a problem at all we don't have a glimpse who to mark them in such manner
- that the whole table is still displayed and
- that the changed cells are shown in a different manner / in a different color.


I searched the DOORS and DXL helps and this forum but didn't found any hint who to do this.


Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Table cells, being objects, show the change bars in the main column. If one of the cells changed, it's change bar would be changed from green to red just like any other object.

You could also create an enumerated attribute that has "yes" and "no" as the options and also has a different color for each of those options. Then create an attribute based on that type and set it to yes for all objects that have changes. Then you can set the default color of the main column to be base on the attribute, so that if a change occured, the object text (including for table cells) would be a different color.

Hello Jeremy,

thanks for your suggestions.

The change bar option won't solve my problem, as I need to mark cells objects which are baselined
but have been changed since the last baseline.

Your second option works perfectly well for all non-table objects. Unfortunately when I've set this up, all table cells kept using the default colors. So, this didn't succeded neither.

Any suggestions ?
Thanks !
