Hm, I am currently trying to convince my girlfriend to use lyx. Everything is
quite fine for her, except the tables. She, too, moans a lot about the way
tables are done in lyx. I have got the feeling that one of the biggest problems
is the missing interaction when creating a table. I know, lyx is not wysiwyg,
but concerning tables it would help much if the final layout could be
controlled more interactively. I donīt want to say that Winword does a good job,
however itīs way to handle tables seems to be easier to understand for the user
than the lyx approach. Mabye a matter to be considered in future?
