You can modify the background and text color of a table cell using python-docx by doing the following:
First, you need to import the necessary libraries:
from docx import Document
from docx.shared import RGBColor
from docx.enum.table import WD_TABLE_ALIGNMENT
from docx.enum.text import WD_COLOR_INDEX
Next, you need to open the document that you want to modify:
document = Document(path_to_document)
To modify the background color of a table cell, you need to access the cell_format
object and set the shading
attribute to the desired color:
cell = document.tables[table_index].cell(row_index, col_index)
cell_format = cell._element.xpath('.//w:tcPr/w:shd')[0]._element
cell_format.set('fill', '00ff00') # set to green
Similarly, to modify the text color of a table cell, you need to access the paragraph_format
object and set the font.color.rgb
attribute to the desired color:
cell_paragraph = cell.paragraphs[0]
cell_paragraph_format = cell_paragraph.paragraph_format
cell_paragraph_format.font.color.rgb = RGBColor(255, 0, 0) # set to red
Finally, you need to save the document:
document.save(path_to_document)
Note that the table_index
, row_index
, and col_index
parameters are zero-based indices, i.e., the first table has index 0, the first row has index 0, and the first column has index 0.
