Hi all,

i try to make a table like i send you here in attachement but my code failed, it seems to be an incompatibility
between tabu package and hhline.
My code:

Code: Select all

If someone can help me ....
Thank you --

Hi,

welcome to the forum!

Put the \rowcolor command after the \hhline command instead of before it.

i need to have first column of table not underlined.

Use a tilde to skip a column with \hhline:

Code: Select all

1
\hhline{~------------}

it seems to work with \hhline{~----}
but some vertical white lines are added at the beginnig and end of row (see attachement)

I may verify this if you post a fully compilable example (minimal working example). I tried the code snippet in the first post, added missing packages etc. but it didn't show it like your screenshots, for example no row color when I tested it.

it seems to work with \hhline{~----}

While ~ means no line, that "line" can be seen because it's the background color then... it may then be done with forcing to draw it in the cell color, like this:

Code: Select all

1
\hhline{>{\arrayrulecolor{SGblue}}->{\arrayrulecolor{white}}----}

but some vertical white lines are added at the beginning and end of row (see attachement)table.png

These are the normal cell borders, it's just because of \arrayrulecolor{white} before.

That becomes very complicated with such design ideas that are very different from the algorithmic table layout by LaTeX. I would choose a simpler design because content matters, though also a good style is important, but a solid one. If needed, I would draw such complicated tables in TikZ, use a matrix for positioning, colored matrix nodes, and draw the lines between rows and columns manually with regular TikZ commands.

i don't know TikZ, do you think it would be possible to do this simply using tabularx ?
