If I understand your question correctly....
Turn on <View><Text Boundaries> and <Table Boundaries>. This will make
it easier to see what's happening.

This will result in even columns. Then <Table><Insert Table> in each
column after "Insert manual column break from the Insert menu".
Tested on Win7 with LibreOffice Version: 5.4.7.2 (x64)
It is very likely that you can automate this function by <Record Macro>
for a Menu of your own.
Hope this helps.

Hi
Ive found out how to resize tables so they dont take up the full page width
(though to be honest i usually find it easier and more flexible to simply
include an additional empty column to right and left and adjust widths as
required) but what i would really like to be able to do is to have two (or
perhaps more) tables juxtaposed horizontally. Is there a way to align tables
horizontally (without resorting to frames, which i tend to find are a right
pain in the proverbials)?
Im currently using version 5.2.2.2 build 1:5.2.2-0ubuntu2.1
Thanks
Gary
