Thanks! I’ve applied the suggested layout, keeping axes.prop_cycle in the description column while leaving the note unchanged. I also retained the blank separator required before the note directive so the table parses correctly.

PR summary
Clarify that
Cncolors are resolved from the globalrcParams['axes.prop_cycle'], not an Axes-local cycle configured withAxes.set_prop_cycle.The existing phrase “default property cycle” was ambiguous because an Axes can have its own property cycle. This expands the existing note in the Color formats table.
Closes #32004
