Word wrap in a cell?

2021-12-15 Thread Steve Litt via lyx-users
Hi All, If I remember correctly, you can specify that a column or a cell can word-wrap, but I can't find a way to do it. I faked it by Ert'ing \\{} in the text, but this made all the vertical lines in the row incomplete and looked really ugly. How do I enable word-wrap within a cell? Thanks,
