Tabularray – “Package tabularray Warning: Table width is too small, need 5.6181pt more!” & Text missing from cell

tablestabularray

I am getting the error "Package tabularray Warning: Table width is too small, need 5.6181pt more!", which gave little results when searching for. I have previosly used the package without problem.

Also, the text "Fixed" does not appear in my table. Could this be connected to the error, or is something else wrong?

See the code and a screenshot of the table below:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tabularray}
\usepackage{float}

\begin{document}

    \begin{table}[H]
    \centering
    \begin{talltblr}[

      row{1}={font=\bfseries},

You use only c columns in your table. This type of columns gets its width from the content. In the end your content is wider than the available text width, thus you get this warning. To avoid this, you can use at least one X column so that tabularray can resize the table to fit in the available text width.

"Fixed" is not visible in your table, because you placed it in the cell directly after a multicolumn cell, which is going to be merged with the cell before it. You need to add one more & after the multicolumn cell so that the Fixed is placed in the cell after the two merged cells.

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{tabularray} 

\begin{document}
       \begin{table}[htbp]
       \centering
       \begin{talltblr}[
           caption = {The three different terminal models currently avaliable}
       ]{
         colspec={XXXX},
         columns={halign=c},
         row{1}={font=\bfseries},
         hlines,
         vlines
       }
           & Standard & {High \\ Performance} & {Flat High \\ Performance} \\

[Tex/LaTex] Table cell height too small when wrapping text

You can add struts to the beginning and end of your columns as follows:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tabu}
\usepackage{longtable}
\pagestyle{empty}
\newcommand{\aefrontstrut}{\rule{0pt}{0.8\baselineskip}}
\newcommand{\aebackstrut}{\rule[-0.6\baselineskip]{0pt}{0.8\baselineskip}}
\begin{document}

\begin{longtabu} to \linewidth {| m{0.41\textwidth} | >{\aefrontstrut}m{0.53\textwidth}<{\aebackstrut} |}
\hline
\multicolumn{1}{|c}{Static (stuff)} & \multicolumn{1}{|c|}{Dynamic (stuff)} \\ \hline
\endhead
\hline
\endfoot
\endlastfoot 
textetxtetxtexttext & textetxtetxtexttext$-$Buffer: X\textbackslash Y\textbackslash y\textbackslash G\textbackslash X\textbackslash H\textbackslash J\textbackslash x00$-$\\ \hline 
textetxtetxtexttext & textetxtetxtexttext$-$Information: XYZ\textbackslash x00 ???\\ \hline   
\caption{calls}
\label{tab:alls}% 
\end{longtabu}
\end{document}

You can use LaTeX's own \strut command, or you can make your own customized struts as I've done above. By using two different style struts and the > and < modifiers for columns, you can control the spacing above the first line and after the last line in that column.

enter image description here

By changing the height of the first strut and the depth of the second strut, you can finely control the spacing.

\rule[<raise>]{<width>}{<height>}

Technically, the optional argument to \rule is not the depth; it's a dimension by which the rule is raised or lowered. By using a negative value you are essentially setting the depth of the strut. Since the strut should not be visible, make sure the <width> is set to Opt.

UPDATE

As noted in the comments below, the alignment can be off if the last column contains some short text. To get around this, use the > < directives for both columns:

\begin{longtabu} to \linewidth {| >{\aefrontstrut}m{0.41\textwidth}<{\aebackstrut} | >{\aefrontstrut}m{0.53\textwidth}<{\aebackstrut} |}

Reduce left text padding in too-small table cell

What about one of the following two suggestions?

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{array}
\begin{document}

\newcolumntype{C}[1]{>{\centering\arraybackslash}m{#1}}

\begin{table}
    \centering
    \setlength{\tabcolsep}{0pt}
    \begin{tabular}{|@{\hspace{6pt}}r@{\hspace{6pt}}||*{7}{>{\footnotesize}C{\dimexpr.31cm+12pt}|}|}
    \cline{1-8}
        \small --- & 0.9 & 0.92 & 0.99 & 1.0 & \textbf{***} &  \textbf{***} & \textbf{***}\\
    \cline{1-8}
    \end{tabular}
\end{table}

\end{document}

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{array}
\usepackage{calc}
\newlength{\mywidth}

\begin{document}
\begin{table}
    \centering
    \setlength{\mywidth}{\widthof{\footnotesize 0.99}}
    \begin{tabular}{|r||*{7}{>{\footnotesize}wc{\mywidth}|}|}
    \cline{1-8}
        \small --- & 0.9 & 0.92 & 0.99 & 1.0 & \textbf{***} &  \textbf{***} & \textbf{***}\\
    \cline{1-8}
    \end{tabular}
\end{table}

\end{document}
