42.2.10 Assigning HTML table and graphic groups with overrides

Two variable-key configuration sections, [TableGroup] and [GraphGroup], are handled differently from the rest. For [TableGroup] and [GraphGroup], a configuration PI marker assigns the table or graphic to a named group. You can use only a temporary override applied with a *Config PI marker, not a macro, to specify the group name. Any key included in the PI marker is ignored.

Table groups

If you put a [TableGroup] configuration PI marker in each table that should be assigned to a given group, you can specify settings for all members of that table group in a [Table*] section in the configuration file.

Note:  Each table can belong to only one table group.

Graphic groups

If you put a [GraphGroup] configuration PI marker just before each graphic that should be assigned to a given group, you can specify settings for all members of that graphic group in a [Graph*] section in the configuration file.

Note:  Each graphic can belong to only one graphic group.
