Hi Richard,
I think you are misdiagnosing the problem. Try this:
1) Insert a left-aligned table with a title in a text column. Make sure the
table is narrower than the text column.
2) Set the table title to be left-aligned. Type text in the table title and
you will see that if it is longer tha
Hi Rhea,
I am verifying the behavior you are seeing. There are two workarounds:
1) If the first paragraph in the title is centered, it will constrain the
whole title to the width of the table. You could have a tiny, blank,
centered paragraph in each title just above your normal, left-aligned ti
Wow. Then it's not just me. How could I have used FrameMaker for 16
years and not have realized this behavior? As far as I'm concerned, it's
a big, fat bug.
Many thanks

I have noted a related (well, not really, but sort of!) problem with using
side-head columns and table. In some of my documents, the table title uses
both the side-head and the text column (the table number is in the side-head
in these documents).
