need borders guidance please

[David Thielen]

Hi;

For the file swiss.docx in
http://www.windwardreports.com/temp/borders.zip can you please tell me
the following:

1) Int row[1] why is the red vertical border red and not blue (the
right border for cell[1] is red while the left border of cell[2] is
blue)?

2) In row [2] the vertical border between cell [1] & cell[2] as well
as between cell[3] & cell[4] is white. But that white cell does not
draw into the black horizontal cell. What are the rules for where a
cell border draws because logically it would go into the corner that
joins the borders.

Also, what is the rule for when borders are drawn over each other like
in item (1) above and when do they draw next to each other? It appears
that if the width is different borders are drawn adjoining but
otherwise they are on top of each other. Is this correct?

thanks - dave

5.If the borders have an identical style, than each border color shall be
assigned a brightness value as follows:
Brightness=R+B+2*G
The color with the smaller brightness value shall win.
6.If the borders have an identical brightness value above, than each border
color shall be assigned a new brightness value as follows:
Brightness=B+2*G
The color with the smaller brightness value shall win.
7.If the borders have an identical brightness value above, than each border
color shall be assigned a brightness value as follows:
Brightness=G
The color with the smaller brightness value shall win.
8.If the borders have an identical brightness value above, then they are
functionally identical, and the first border in reading order should be
displayed.
