Yes, I understood what you meant, sorry. My point is that it might be
practical here because tabular uses only InsetText. I am not sure this
is feasible but maybe we can make InsetTabular independent of
InsetText; this way a cell could contain an InsetText, an InsetMath or
an InsetGraphics for example.

So you want to merge tabular and math array, right?

Right. But I am just sending out ideas at this point, I am busy enough with other stuff. Maybe Alfredo will find the challenge interesting ;-)


This could make
sense indeed. OTOH, I do not see where you are heading with the
InsetGraphics example.

I am thinking of table cells that contains only graphics (and optionally caption (see below). The graphics size would be automatically adjusted upon the cell size. This would be interesting for example when you have a table which header is only composed of graphics. I know there are ways to achieve that with other insets but it would be perhaps better to support that automatically.

I am also thinking of array of figures. I know we have subfigure support already but each figure needs to be declared as "subfigure" and its size need to be adjusted manually. With an array of figures, the size and position would be calculated based upon the cell size and position. We could also leave place for the subfigure caption directly on screen instead of in the Graphics dialog.

Just an idea. I don't know well LateX is suited for that.

Abdel.
