If you try to select a type other than inches on the drop down menu before you have chosen a size, it won't let you change. It will only let you change after you've typed in a number, and if it's a large number in inches at least, LyX will slow down.
The thing with the borders worked great, thank you - I was trying this before but I always right clicked and somehow selected the last cell in the table. This time I went to the drop down menu and selected table settings. I don't have the table toolbar because I'm too lazy to hack around to make it show up... Still wondering about the width, though. When I try the same method trying to set equal widths to each column, it only sets the width of the last column. Setting them manually is not terrible, but not ideal.

Is there an easier way, sort of like the way > you do it in HTML? - mark all table cells (not the table itself) - right-click in the toolbar to open the table toolbar - use the button to disable all table lines So if the table toolbar is shown, its only one click.

I couldn't reproduce this problem. regards Uwe
