I haven't had the time to try all other suggestions yet, but this one seems to me a very good point. I used to use minipages (around the three rows content) because I wanted those 3 rows to be kept together in the same page or moved to the next page as a whole if they didn't fit the current page. Then I extended the use of minipage to \classeentry because I hoped to obtain the same alignment as \dogentrytrerighe that way, but that last minipage use is nothing I actually need, since it didn't solve the horizontal alignment problem. Now, if you can tell me another way of keeping the three rows on the same page, I'd be more than happy to drop minipages altogether. Maybe that will fix also the horizontal alignment problem as a side effect. -------------------------------------------------- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex
