double lines at the top and bottom of tables?
Is it possible to put double lines at the top and bottom of tables? I know that I can do this for all of the other lines in the table, but I only need it for the top and bottom lines...and can't seem to figure that out. Anna
Re: double lines at the top and bottom of tables?
A quick workaround would be to add an additional (zeroth) row on the top of the table, and to enable the bottom line of the cells in this row only. Another solution is to use the plain LaTeX table command "\hline" inside of a table in LyX. You have to figure out, where to place this command exactly. As far as I remember, you have to write it prior to the text in your first table cell.

You cannot do it with the GUI, but you can do it with ERT:
For double line at the top, put '\hline ' (using latex mode) at the beginning
of the first cell (i.e. the top left cell).
For double line at the bottom, put the following line in the preamble
\newcommand{\dblline}[2]{\\ \hline\hline}
and put '\dblline' at the end of the last cell.
