When using the predefined shape "Table with Title 1" (in Misc menu), the surrounding black row and column gridlines get overlaid (and therefore hidden and not printed) when I add background colour to a cell. In a PDF print, this means the shape doesn't appear like a Table at all and is much less clear.

Having clicked on the a coloured cell content box, I have tried:

- in "Arrange": choosing "To Back" or "Send Backwards" to see if this allows the table's gridlines to sit on top of the coloured cells
- In "Arrange": reducing the "size" (width and height) to see if that stops the coloured cell overlapping the gridlines
- In "Style": increasing "perimeter" for the Line (just wondered what this parameter was for!)

...but none of these solve the issue.

Any other suggestions?
