Rotating a Table Cell over multiple Rows

Post by Montag »

Hello,

in the MWE (see attachment) I would like to make the words "ALongPhrase" and "haphap" to only appear in front of the respective rows, not to reach down so much.
I guess what I'm looking for is a dynamic row size ... but I might be totally wrong, I'm a bit clueless on this one.


(Hope you don't mind the tgtermes pkg, I included it because I also got T3 encoded fonts before -- that's why I added the line.)

I first thought about a line break in the concerned cells. Would that be an option?

No, a line break isn't important (right now) at all. It's like ... I want the rows to get automatically so "big" so that the long words nicely span over the respective rows.
So that none of the words leaps over the line under them.

I'm not aware of an automatism. All I know are manual settings which affect all rows of a table.
