oh my, how embarrassing! :-/ Sorry, obviously I did look too long at my picture, you are of course completely right, all columns are left aligned. > If you do that would seem a deeper issue, perhaps in the engine, since > nothing in revPintingLibrary currently supports differing column alignments. > Indeed, based on what we can read in the code, adding the one line to set the > tabAlign resolves the issue.
