Some problems with my table.
I managed to poach ideas from this entry: Make list of sentences in table break normally and created this longtable (without using tabularx).
It works ... okay-ish.
Here are issues I was hoping to get some help with:
- The month numbers in the first column are aligned right. I'd like
them centered. - The words in "Column Two" are not properly aligned.
- On the second sceen capture, there is a huge gap between the
sentences in the fourth column. That's because the first sentence ("I
told him, etc.") is quite short. Of course, I could fix it manually, but would there be a way to make this adjustment more automatic?
Thank you.
