The Schedule Appearance and Template properties to control graphics are a complete mess. There are conflicting graphic controls in Properties > Appearance vs Titles & Headers. Furthermore, some of these properties, such as Header Borders and Text alignment cannot be controlled in a template. And when a template is applied, the options to control them in the ribbon are not available. Some graphic properties can be controlled with a template, some not. It's an excessive and painstaking amount of work when making a new schedule to apply a template to get some graphic properties, and then remove the template and manually adjust other graphic properties. I'm not going to take the time to outline in detail all of the problems that and conflicts that exist, as that would take up far too much time and space. This is yet another area of Revit that has been neglected for decades and needs to be reviewed and revised. I find it appalling that this type of disfunction continues to exist and gets overlooked release after release, while Autodesk rolls new features and brags about increased productivity, and quietly revises features that actually did work just fine and makes a mess out them.
