Thanks! IMHO the problem lies not in the dialog, but in the tabular inset. For some reason, alignment is always set to "left" in multicolumn cell if the column has fixed width. I suspect that the horizontal alignment of the column influences the horizontal alignment of the multicolumn cell (and the first one is and has to be set automatically to "left" if the column has a fixed width). Probably the first one overrides the second one, because they are not separated correctly. Have a look at the attached example file: If you change alignment in line 36 from "left" to "center" and open the file in LyX, the alignment in the multicolumn cell is centered. The display in LyX and the PS-Output are both correct. Open the dialog: all the settings are o.k. Alignment in "Cell" is set to center. Now press "Close": Doh! Alignment is reset to left. Line 36 of the file has been changed. Any ideas? Juergen > Angus
