Cannot change border color

system_migrated

I am using BIRT 2.5.2 with jboss dev studio 3.0.

I have a table cell whose border I would like to change to a thin silver line. When I change the cell properties in the designer to thin(width) and silver (color) the change does not stick when I go to preview the table. The border appears alright, but it is a heavy black line. And when I go back to review the properties they have reverted back to the original.

I am brand new to BIRT so perhaps there is something really straightforward I am missing. I don't see any Apply button or anything like that.

Help?
