Table styles text alignment for the data segment overriden by text editor justification

[Anonymous]

Hello, I am an AutoCAD instructor, there is this issue of setting the text alignment for the data in table styles. Why is it the set justification set in the data segment of table styles overridden when I type in numeric values by the text editor justification?

Because of..

a) Is it a standard in table calculation programs (all like Excel), Users like it when it acts like what they knows

b) Note, it seems you set up the cell style for Data cells to  FORMAT: GENERAL, and only then your statement and my a) is correct.

     Like in Excel the program detect "333" as number, for numbers the just. is right, for Text like "ABC", left.

     Use Cell style TEXT to handle "only numbers" values as stupid FORMAT: TEXT.

     like in Excel.
