Hi,
I'm using a document which has been created with lyx-1.3.7 containing a
table. It works (nearly) fine with lyx-1.5.0beta1.
BUT:
* When the cursor is in a cell of the table right clicking the mouse
opens the table dialogue. I can't see any more the possibility to add a
row or column neither the possibility to delete one of these.
(With LyX-1.3.7 i made quite often use of this because I often come up
with an additional idea AFTER having created a table.)
Omission or feature?
Feature. As of LyX 1.4.I-forget-which, the table context dialog no
longer contains adjustments to number of rows/columns. However, all is
not lost. There is now a toolbar for table operations, and it includes
buttons for adding/deleting rows/columns, along with changing
justification, merging cells, fiddling with the border, and more. In
LyX 1.5.0, you can turn this toolbar on with View -> Toolbars -> Table.
Clicking that toggles between three settings: off; on; and auto. The
toolbar appears at the bottom of the window. The auto feature is
particularly handy: the toolbar will appear automatically if your cursor
is inside a table cell, and disappear automatically when the cursor is
outside the table.
