I found this in one of my files:
\newenvironment{ths_tbl}[0]{\medskip{}
\begin{centering}\noindent\medskip{}
\setlength{\tabcolsep}{4pt}\setlength{\extrarowheight}{2pt}\small}{\par\end{centering}}
which I put all of my tables into.
So \extrarowheight might be what you are after (?).

Re: How to put an end to white spaces around figures
I was able to get some of it solved by putting the following in the preamble:
\setlength\fboxsep{0pt} \setlength\fboxrule{1pt}
This fixed the box to be tight around the image and of 1 point thickness.
\setlength\tabcolsep{0pt}
This made the tables tight horizontally.
I was looking for a similar command for the row separation (tabrowsep) - but
my doc would not compile, so I assume that the row separation works
differently.
Does anyone know how to set table row separation? This would be of great
help.
Thanks,
Tal.

The problem is that lyx automatically inserts white spaces above, below, to the left and to the right of the figures. Table cells have internal spacing so the text won't touch the edges. This can be tweaked (or zeroed) with latex commands. I am not sure if you can adjust a single cell only, or if the whole table is affected. Sometimes I wish to get rid of that behavior, and to remove or reduce the white spaces. I can sometimes do it by inserting negative spaces, but this is tedious work. In addition, sometimes I have a figure which has white background, and I want to add a thin black line around it, but it also has to be tight. I tried a single cell table or a box inside the main table. Once again, I am faced with the white spaces plus the alignment of the table sometimes get messed up. I usually use a box with these settings: Decoration: Simple rectangular frame Inner Box: none width: 1 [Width] The spacing is tight, although not completely gone. Spacing is small enough for a frame around a small logo though. As for alignment - that is an interesting topic. Help->embedded objects has a section on that. Almost anything can be done, but it is not always easy. Helge Hafting
How to put an end to white spaces around figures
Hello all. I have searched for this for a long time, but could not find a satisfactory solution. I usually insert figures into tables (which reside inside figure floats). The problem is that lyx automatically inserts white spaces above, below, to the left and to the right of the figures. Sometimes I wish to get rid of that behavior, and to remove or reduce the white spaces. I can sometimes do it by inserting negative spaces, but this is tedious work. In addition, sometimes I have a figure which has white background, and I want to add a thin black line around it, but it also has to be tight. I tried a single cell table or a box inside the main table. Once again, I am faced with the white spaces plus the alignment of the table sometimes get messed up. I would really appreciate it if someone could offer a remedy to this situation, preferably a preamble fix. Thanks in advance, Tal. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/How-to-put-an-end-to-white-spaces-around-figures-tp2424048p2424048.html Sent from the LyX - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
