(Attached file pdf file contains the same table) LyX can't split a cell, but you can work around this fact by creating an extra column. Then, merge cells on all lines except the one where you want the split. This gives you a horizontal "split", although with some work. You may want to file a wishlist item on bugzilla.lyx.org about this - the LyX GUI could certainly automate such an operation. There is no vertical splitting, but it is still possible to make a table that look like yours. Simply make the dividing line invisible in some places, and it should look like your pdf. Actually putting something into those cells will reveal the fact that they aren't really merged horizontally. I attached a LyX file that looks like your example. It works with Lyx version 1.5 I had to use the upcoming LyX-1.6 to make it, as getting the lines right in LyX 1.5 is hard. This is much easier in LyX 1.6. Still, the file uses no 1.6 specific stuff, so it converted nicely to 1.5 format. Helge Hafting lyx15-splittable.lyx Description: application/lyx

I guess you can do it using ERT of course. Abdel. I think multi-column (merge cells) can be used to create that table. Use two columns, then you merge two horizontal cells. You can only merge _vertical_ cells AFAICS (tested in 1.6). Abdel. Sorry, I didn't read this properly. You can make something similar with a table in a table Excellent! Can you imagine that after 12 years using LyX and maybe 2 years developing it I never knew that this was possible? One always learns :-) but the borders will be different. The borders can be adjusted I think. Abdel.

I can merge horizontal (i.e. columns) in my Lyx 1.5 for what its worth :-) Vertical merging needs ERT. -- Rudi van der Linde [EMAIL PROTECTED] Note: This message (and attachments) is subject to restrictions and a disclaimer.
