Hi Edwin,
thanks for your patch! The metrics are now perfectly calculated.
Could you additionally please add a comment to the code how the calculation is done? (It is not
clear to me what space "backdes" denotes. OK, one could search the code to learn what
tm.last().second->descent() and then what TEXT_TO_INSET_OFFSET is for. But as one usually forget
theses things in a few months, a comment would be helpful in order to maintain the coder later if
problems arise.)
I now again checked all open table issues and updated the Wiki page:
http://wiki.lyx.org/Devel/Multirow
There are two simple alignment issues of multirow cells:
Multirow cells must be drawn left-aligned and vertically centered but LyX does
the opposite.
The strange thing is that the alignmenst are correctly set in
Tabular::setMultiRow
but these settings are ignored. Can you please have a look?
thanks and regards
Uwe
