Text alignment frustrations

Post by iksotof »

Hello

I am trying to get the text aligned in this table, looking at the first row as an example, they are all aligned centre left so why isn't every line starting at the same horizontal point? I can cheat so it all looks the same to the eye by adapting different alignment to different cells but i don't want ot to that, I am puzzled?

Thank you in advance.

If you tun on the display of non-printing characters, you'll see that there are paragraph breaks after the text in the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 6th columns:

These push the text upwards. Removing the paragraph breaks corrects the layout:
