Customise environment for table formatting

Thank you both for your replies - and sorry for my delay.

@Stefan: I will surely use manual inputs. Just that I get it right, creating macros can be done with "\renewenvironment" to adjust tables. Let's say I want that always all text in all columns is left-aligned, then I probably should do it in ...

Customise environment for table formatting

Thank you for your notes. A quick documentation check of ctable looks nice, but seems complicated for a beginner like me. But I acknowledge your expert reply! Regarding "resize", this makes sense, too. I will decide on a case-by-case basis if the table is too small and consider rotating it when ...

Customise environment for table formatting

Hi Stefan

That's great news! Awesome!!

Customise environment for table formatting

Hi Stefan

The output is very decent, in my thesis I just trimmed the "midlines" a bit, but that's a detail. So your suggestion is what I basically have now in my thesis.
