During the development of a report using the Microsoft Word Add-In, it has come to our attention that some of the formatting functionality that is present in Board web is not offered by the add-in.

  • Border thickness cannot be configured in the add-in, but it can be in Board web.

Unfortunately, any native MS word formatting is lost after performing a refresh of the chert object, so using native formatting will not work as a workaround. We request that the add-in please offer the same formatting options as there are on the web client.
