Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Table with multi-column footnotes

[gammapoint]

Hi, I have a table with lots of footnotes and they are just stacking up in one column (I'm currently using the tabular environment with threeparttable). Is there a way to make the footnotes multicolumn with threeparttable or do I need to do something else?

Thanks in advance!

Use the package option para:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[para]{threeparttable}
\usepackage{array}

\begin{document}

\begin{table}
\begin{threeparttable}[t]
\caption{...}
\begin{tabular}{*4{p{.2\linewidth}}}
 \hline
  text\tnote{1} & text\tnote{2} & text\tnote{3} & text\tnote{4} \\
  some          & more          & text          & to \\
  produce       & some          & table         & lines \\
 \hline
\end{tabular}
\begin{tablenotes}\footnotesize
 \item [1] the first note
 \item [2] the second note
 \item [3] the third note
 \item [4] the fourth note
\end{tablenotes}
\end{threeparttable}
\end{table}

\end{document}
