Hi List; Following a lengthy table building exercise between myself, my wife and many of the user list regular contributors I decided to place a table building "wish" on to the Wiki.
It has been suggested I post it here for all: {\snip from Wiki} Not a complaint this really, just that I can't find a suggestion/request box! Creating tables is mostly straight out of the box. However, the finer tweaking of tables is a bit of a trial at the moment. It’s just taken two of us(wife and I) plus the mailing list regulars (thanks to all) the best part of four hours to figure out how to place nice bullet lists (using \itemize*) within a minipage, within a table cell, within a table, with some text centered, top aligned and with nice equal looking cell padding. The finished product is “almost” as my wife wants it!!! So my request/wish would be for a better table handling gizmo-thingy and how about an instant preview of tables as per the Math instant preview. If I can help/test - I’m willing. {\end snip} I've already been in contact with Angus wrt the table instant preview but since I cannot currently compile the source it seems that I may be limited to testing only.
