POLatex: Problem with Multirow
text
Body
copied!<p><br> I am creating a table with mulitrow but I am getting a problem. As far as I understand, this is the form of the multirow:</p> <pre><code>\multirow{count}{alignment}{content} </code></pre> <p>where count is the number of rows to merge, alignment is either l, c, r, or *, and content is the content of the row. I tried the following:</p> <pre><code>\multirow{3}{*}{Framing} </code></pre> <p>but I am getting a problem. Rather than seeing the word "Framing" in the cell, I see "3*Framing" which gives the indication that the \multirow element isn't working. Any idea?</p> <p>Also, how is it possible to align a text in a cell vertically?</p> <p>UPDATE: I thought the \usepackage{multirow} would solve it, but I still see problems: First, I can't make vertical alignments. Second, I get some strange thing with the "Framing" cell. Instead of getting "Framing" aligned to the left, I get one virtual row containing the letter "l" and then after two virtual rows I get the word "Framing"!! It is something like this:</p> <pre><code>______________ | l | | | | Framing | | | | | | | | | ______________ </code></pre> <p>This is my table for those who asked about it:</p> <pre><code>\begin{table*}\tiny \centering \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|p{2in}|} \hline Rule & Factor & Best Value & \Delta_t & \Delta_{do} & Comments \\ \hline % Diagonal Dominance Rule \multirow{3}{*}{Diagonal Dominance} & Line Angle & 45 & 15 & 30 & The angle between the prominent line of the object and the diagonal lines \\ % TODO: What object? Make sure it is clear. & Line Distance & 0 & 0.25 & 1 & The distance, in screen coordinates, from the prominent line of the object to the diagonal lines. \\ % TODO: Need to define screen coordinates & Corner Distances & 0 & 0.1 & 0.7 & The distance, in screen coordinates, from the end of the prominent line of the object to the corners of the screen. \\ \hline % Framing Rule \multirow{4}{l}{Framing} & Left Distance & 0 & ${Frame Width}*5\%$ & ${Frame Width}*25\%$ & The distance between the left side of the frame covering the object and the left or the right side of the intended frame, whichever closer. \\ & Right Distance & 0 & ${Frame Width}*5\%$ & ${Frame Width}*25\%$ & The distance between the right side of the frame covering the object and the left or the right side of the intended frame, whichever closer. \\ & Top Distance & 0 & ${Frame Height}*5\%$ & ${Frame Height}*25\%$ & The distance between the top side of the frame covering the object and the upper or the lower side of the intended frame, whichever closer. \\ & Bottom Distance & 0 & ${Frame Height}*5\%$ & ${Frame Height}*25\%$ & The distance between the bottom side of the frame covering the object and the upper or the lower side of the intended frame, whichever closer. \\ \hline \end{tabular} \caption{The factors of each rule and their parameters.} \label{table:factors} \end{table*} </code></pre> <p>Regards,<br> Rafid</p>
