it has been like this since the beginning of (lyx) time it would be a good to get rid of such latex idiosyncrasies in the lyx ui at one point i was planning to add a linestyle combo to the table tool bar (and dialog) and remove the superfluous line members this would get rid of the ambiguous toggling of line below and line above of the cell below, and that for the whole row, to get a double line i vaguely remember that i could not decide how to store the line info, in the cells or separately, and after that i got sidetracked… edwin
