About This Feature

Overview

Clear Table Style is a built-in table formatting feature in WPS Office for Windows Presentation. It removes the borders, fills, fonts, and other style settings currently applied to a table, then returns the table to a default unstyled state so you can format it again more easily.

Core capabilities:

Clear an applied table style: remove the current visual style from the selected table.
Keep table content intact: text and data inside the table remain unchanged.
Prepare the table for reformatting: after clearing the style, you can apply another table style or format the table manually.

This feature is useful when you want to standardize slide design, correct an unsuitable table style, or redesign a table without rebuilding its content.

Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	WPS lets you clear the current table style from a selected table and return it to a default unstyled state while keeping the table content.	Microsoft documents that users can open the Table Styles gallery from the Table Design tab and choose Clear or Clear Table to remove a table style.	Google Docs documents table styling through border color, border width, border dash, and background color changes for cells, but the official page does not describe a dedicated command to clear a full table style in one step.	Notion documents table views for databases, including row and column rearrangement, wrap text, and calculations, but it does not describe a presentation-style table formatting reset command.	Adobe Acrobat help content focuses on PDF and form field formatting. The official page reviewed does not describe a presentation table style clearing feature comparable to this workflow.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: clears the visual table style directly from the selected table; Distinct: keeps the table text and data in place so you can restyle the table immediately.	Compared with WPS: Microsoft also provides a clear option for table styles, but its official guidance is centered on general table design workflows in Microsoft 365 apps.	Compared with WPS: Google emphasizes manual table formatting changes for cells and borders rather than a dedicated clear-table-style command in the referenced help page.	Compared with WPS: Notion is oriented toward database-style tables and view customization rather than slide table style reset actions.	Compared with WPS: Adobe's referenced help content is focused on PDF form formatting, so this specific table style reset scenario is not a documented primary workflow there.

Overall Conclusion
If your goal is to remove an existing table style in a presentation and quickly start over with a clean table appearance, WPS matches that workflow directly. Other products also support table or formatting adjustments, but the documented entry points and use cases are not the same across their official help pages.
