A Better Decimal-Alignment Solution
|
||
|
\layout Standard
|
||
|
|
||
|
An alternative way to have decimal alignment in tables is through the dcolumn
|
||
|
package.
|
||
|
Add the following to the LateX preamble:
|
||
|
\layout LyX-Code
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
\backslash
|
||
|
usepackage{dcolumn}
|
||
|
\layout LyX-Code
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
\backslash
|
||
|
newcolumntype{d}[1]{D{.}{.}{#1}}
|
||
|
\layout Standard
|
||
|
|
||
|
To have a column decimally aligned, enter in the
|
||
|
\family sans
|
||
|
Special Column Alignment
|
||
|
\family default
|
||
|
box of the
|
||
|
\family sans
|
||
|
Table extra
|
||
|
\family default
|
||
|
form the following:
|
||
|
\layout LyX-Code
|
||
|
|
||
|
d{number of decimals of the data}
|
||
|
\layout Standard
|
||
|
|
||
|
In the following table we entered
|
||
|
\family typewriter
|
||
|
d{4}
|
||
|
\family default
|
||
|
:
|

\layout Standard
|
||
|
|
||
|
To create extra column space just increase the number of decimals in
|
||
|
\family typewriter
|
||
|
d{}
|
||
|
\family default
|
||
|
.
|
||
|
Setting the multicolumn attribute for a single cell makes it insensitive
|
||
|
to the decimal alignment which comes in handy as well.
|
||
|
A drawback of this method is that math mode is not allowed in a column
|
||
|
with decimal alignment except if the multicolumn attribute is set.
|
||
|
\layout Standard
|
||
|
|
||
|
This method offers the same flexibility as the
|
||
|
\family typewriter
|
||
|
dcolumn
|
||
|
\family default
|
||
|
package.
|
||
|
One could, for example, change the alignment separator, and have different
|
||
|
alignment separators for different columns by defining multiple column
|
||
|
types in the preamble.
|
||
|
The syntax is as follows:
|
||
|
\layout LyX-Code
|
||
|
|
||
|
D{inputsep}{outputsep}{decimal places}
|
||
|
\layout Standard
|
||
|
|
||
|
The interested reader is directed towards the
|
||
|
\family typewriter
|
||
|
dcolumn
|
||
|
\family default
|
||
|
package documentation for more details.
