Hello,
I'm working with Lyx 1.3.2-1 QT on SuSE-8.1 and I'm not clear, if the
following is a Lyx or Latex problem - so any help is welcome.
I want to place two minipages side by side, with bottom alignment. Lyx
is showing this fine (on screen), whether I fill the minipages with text
or with a tabular.
But when I do fill my left minipage with a tabular, then the dvi- or
pdf-file show a (vertical) center alignment.
It seems, that I don't understand something very basic with tabulars -
but even when studying the Latex companion, I don't see the point.
You can see the problem with the following example of Herbert Vo�
(slightly modified, i.e. table and captions deleted).
Thank you very much
Bernhard
