20.1.4.2.25 tblBg

This element defines the formatting options which can be applied to the table background shape. The background shape is the same size as the entire table and can hold a fill or an effect which spans the entire table.

[Example: Consider the following example of a table background in use within DrawingML:

<tblBg>
  <fillRef idx="2">
    <schemeClr val="accent1"/>
  </fillRef>
  <effectRef idx="1">
    <schemeClr val="accent1"/>
  </effectRef>
</tblBg>

In this example, we see that there is a themed fill and themed effect being applied to the table background through the table style. end example]
